Head of Treasury Steffen Diel has almost completed a dozen M&A deals at SAP, at least in terms of major transactions. In our latest podcast episode, we talk to him about whether the handling of an M&A project can be described as the supreme discipline of treasury, how crucial the timing of such a transaction is and what the do's and don'ts are for treasurers when it comes to M&A financing.

Steffen Diel has been Head of Treasury at the Walldorf-based software group SAP since October 2014 and is a member of VDT's Equity & Debt division.
