Centralizing the treasury operations in Paris? Sounds like a recipe for a Parisian revolution if you ask me. Just kidding, but seriously, this is clearly an in-house bank and a centralized organization.

Well, at least they're not outsourcing their treasury to a shared service center. That would be like letting the fox guard the henhouse, if you ask me.

I see your point, Willard. It could be a combination of both a hybrid structure and a centralized organization.

But wouldn't it also be considered an in-house bank and a centralized organization?

This is definitely an in-house bank and a centralized organization. Centralizing all the company's financing under the Paris headquarters is a classic example of a centralized treasury setup.

I'm not sure, but I think this could also be considered a hybrid treasury structure. Centralizing the treasury operations while still maintaining some decentralized aspects seems like a hybrid approach.

This new proposal sounds like an in-house bank and a centralized organization to me. The goal of establishing the treasury as the primary provider of banking services and financing makes it a centralized model.
