In this episode, Bristol Myers Squibb’s Bill Brewer, a member of the company's financial risk management (FRM) team, shares insights with NeuGroup’s Justin Jones on the risk mindset he developed in previous roles within audit, and how that informs his current approach. He also shares about the FRM team, a small group within treasury that focuses on foreign exchange and interest rate hedging, commodities exposure, counterparty risk and the company's short-term cash portfolio.
Earlier in his career, Mr. Brewer was a certified public accountant who spent time at Deloitte, and joined BMS initially in internal audit. In the podcast, he says his experience in IA gave him a unique view of the company’s different functional areas, helping him to bridge the gap of working with business units outside of treasury.
