European clients increasingly rely on mobile treasury tools, with payment volumes rising 25% in the first seven months of 2026

  • Mobile treasury usage has reached mainstream adoption across Europe.
  • Clients increasingly view security and convenience as complementary, not competing, priorities.
  • Direct client feedback continues to guide enhancements to the CashPro® App.

LONDON and BARCELONA, Spain, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- European companies are increasingly turning to Bank of America's CashPro App to manage time-sensitive treasury tasks. In the first seven months of 2026, clients in the region used the app to approve more than €100 billion in payments, as transaction volume rose 25% and payment value increased 21%[1].

CashPro App transaction volume has increased 25%

The shift reflects how mobile access is becoming embedded in corporate treasury workflows, particularly for secure authentication and payment approvals. Bank of America has continued to expand the app's functionality and simplify its design so treasury teams can complete more tasks securely from a mobile device.

Mobile becomes the preferred way to access CashPro

CashPro mobile token, Bank of America's mobile authentication solution, replaces the need for a physical token. Together with biometrics, QR Sign-In and push authentication, it enables corporate treasury users to access CashPro and approve transactions securely from their mobile devices.

Across Europe, 74% of CashPro users now choose a CashPro mobile token as their preferred way to authenticate and access the platform, underscoring the growing role of the app in day-to-day treasury management.

"Mobile is an integral part of the daily treasury workflow, giving clients the flexibility to manage critical tasks securely wherever they are," said Matthew Davies, head of Global Payments Solutions EMEA at Bank of America. "The fact that 74% of CashPro users in Europe now choose the app as their preferred security token demonstrates how firmly mobile has become embedded in day-to-day treasury and cash management."

Client feedback shapes the payment approval experience

As clients conduct more business through the app, Bank of America recently enhanced the payment approval experience to provide greater visibility into payment details and make approvals more efficient.

The updates were informed by direct input from clients, including those who participate in the bank's CashPro Boards.

"Moving from a physical token to the CashPro App was a natural step for us," said Kunwarjit Singh Suri, EMEA Controller at F5 Limited and a member of the bank's UK CashPro Board. "It gives us the security we need while making it easier to review and approve transactions wherever we are. The new payment approval process is another nice touch making it easier for us to review and approve payments."

Extending secure mobile access

Bank of America is developing new digital identity verification capabilities for corporate administrators, building on the app's cybersecurity protections and patented integrated mobile token.

"Clients around the globe have embraced mobile and continue to ask us to expand what they can accomplish through the app," said Heath Bergman, CashPro App Product Executive at Bank of America. "Their feedback is helping shape our investment as we extend secure mobile access to more treasury workflows."

Weitere Betrugsvorwürfe gegen René Benko im Signa-Komplex

15.06.2026

Im Insolvenzkomplex rund um den einstigen Signa-Konzern steht Firmengründer René Benko vor einem weiteren Strafverfahren. Die österreichische Wirtschafts- und Korruptionsstaatsanwaltschaft (WKStA) hat beim Landesgericht Innsbruck erneut Anklage wegen schweren Betrugs und Schädigung von Gläubigerinteressen (betrügerischer Krida) eingebracht. Der 49‑jährige Investor befindet sich seit Januar 2025 in Untersuchungshaft. Die neue Anklage ist nicht rechtskräftig, es gilt die Unschuldsvermutung, Benko bestreitet sämtliche Vorwürfe.

Kern des aktuellen Verfahrens ist eine Garantieerklärung gegenüber einem Investor beziehungsweise den Vertretern einer Privatstiftung, hinter der nach Medienangaben der frühere Strabag‑Chef Hans-Peter Haselsteiner stehen dürfte. Nach Darstellung der WKStA soll Benko eine „wahrheitswidrige Garantie“ abgegeben und die Stiftung dadurch um rund fünf Millionen Euro geschädigt haben. Konkret sollen die vertretungsbefugten Organe der Stiftung durch die Erklärung dazu veranlasst worden sein, etwa 3,3 Millionen Euro an die Signa Holding zu überweisen und auf die Rückforderung weiterer rund 1,7 Millionen Euro zu verzichten.

Der Garantie zufolge sei der Privatstiftung eine Zahlung von in Summe rund fünf Millionen Euro bis spätestens 30. Juni 2024 zugesichert worden. Diese Rückzahlung sei jedoch ausgeblieben, so die Anklagebehörde. Dadurch soll die Stiftung in Millionenhöhe geschädigt und im Gegenzug die Signa Holding sowie eine weitere Gesellschaft unrechtmäßig bereichert worden sein. Neben dieser angeblichen Falschgarantie wirft die WKStA Benko vor, im Zuge der Signa-Insolvenz sowie seiner persönlichen Insolvenz ein Jagdgewehr im Wert von rund 80.000 Euro vor den Gläubigern verborgen zu haben und damit deren Befriedigung vereitelt zu haben.

Benko war über zwei Jahrzehnte eine der prominentesten Unternehmerfiguren im deutschsprachigen Raum. Mit einem dicht verschachtelten Geflecht aus Immobilien- und Handelsbeteiligungen baute er das Signa-Imperium auf, zu dem zeitweise auch die deutschen Warenhausketten Karstadt und Kaufhof gehörten. Steigende Zinsen, höhere Baukosten und aggressive Zukäufe trugen letztlich zur Insolvenz des Konzerns bei. Im weitläufigen Signa-Komplex wird der ehemalige Milliardär von der WKStA unter anderem wegen Betrugs, Untreue und Bankrotts verdächtigt; weitere Anklagen hält die Behörde für möglich.

Der Investor ist bereits in zwei ähnlichen Verfahren verurteilt worden, beide Urteile sind jedoch noch nicht rechtskräftig. Im Oktober 2025 verhängte ein Gericht eine zweijährige Haftstrafe, im Dezember desselben Jahres folgte wegen Schädigung von Gläubigern eine weitere Verurteilung zu 15 Monaten auf Bewährung sowie eine Geldstrafe. Parallel dazu laufen mehrere Ermittlungsstränge, die auch andere frühere Führungskräfte aus dem Signa-Umfeld betreffen. Die jetzige Anklage erhöht den juristischen Druck auf Benko weiter und dürfte die Aufarbeitung einer der spektakulärsten Unternehmenspleiten im deutschsprachigen Raum zusätzlich in die Länge ziehen.
