When it comes to contingency planning for a Eurozone break-up, it is typically a German company that has been ahead of the game.

It also took to parking cash at the ECB, once depositing 500m euros after withdrawing them from riskier French lenders. Now, with just about everyone reckoning Greece is heading for the exit, the treasury operations of multinational companies have gone into overdrive. WPP, Reckitt Benckiser and Diageo, to name just three, have taken to a daily sweep of euros from their accounts to reduce the risk of any overnight devaluation, The Telegraph reports.
