A group cash position spread across entities, banks, and currencies hides how much is actually available today. A Cash Position Consolidation Playbook reads bank feeds, entity ledgers, intercompany settlements, and local minimum-balance rules, then separates the freely available cash from the cash that is trapped, idle, or restricted.
The Challenge
A consolidated cash figure looks reassuring until you try to use it. Balances behind intercompany settlement, local minimum requirements, and slow accounts are counted the same as cash you can move today, so the number overstates what is really available.
Cash parked in low-yield accounts in one entity while the group draws on a higher-cost facility elsewhere is a cost nobody owns. Spread across eighteen accounts, it is invisible in a single blended total.
Balances, settlements, and intercompany timing change daily. A position pulled together by hand once a week is out of date the moment it is shared, and the trapped cash it should surface stays trapped.
How eyko Solves It
A Cash Position Consolidation Playbook connects to your bank feeds, entity ledgers, and intercompany records, pulls every balance into one view on a regular beat, and separates freely available cash from the cash held behind settlement, against local minimums, or sitting idle in low-yield accounts.
The group holds 26.4M across eighteen accounts in six entities, but only 11.8M is freely available to the group today. The rest is held behind settlement, against minimums, or parked in low-yield accounts.

Cash position consolidation pulls every group balance into one view and asks how much is genuinely available today. The Playbook reads bank feeds, entity ledgers, and intercompany records, then separates freely available cash from balances held behind settlement, against local minimums, or sitting idle, so treasury sees the usable number, not just the headline total.
This is decision intelligence in practice: the what, the why, and the what next from your live data.

Everything you need to know about Cash Position Consolidation.
Cash position consolidation pulls every group balance across entities, banks, and currencies into one view and shows how much is genuinely available today. eyko reads bank feeds, entity ledgers, and intercompany records, then separates freely available cash from balances held behind settlement, against local minimums, or sitting idle, so treasury can act on the usable number.
A blended total counts cash you cannot move today the same as cash you can. The Playbook breaks the position down by availability, isolating intercompany settlement delays, local minimums, and idle low-yield balances, and recommends the moves that free the most usable cash, rather than just reporting one number.
It reads from your bank feeds, entity general ledgers, and intercompany records, alongside any data platform you already run. There is no separate data project to start, and it works with systems such as SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, and Workday.
Once connected, the Playbook returns the consolidated position split by availability on its next beat, in minutes rather than the days a manual roll-up usually takes, then refreshes as balances and settlements change so the view stays current.
