ACTSA aims to provide both its members and potential members with ongoing networking opportunities, exposure to international treasury practices and creates a forum for the discussion of industry-specific issues.
In the fast developing world of finance, the management of an organisation’s cash flows, investments, borrowings and financial exposures is no longer left to the accountant, who may not have the necessary understanding of the risks and required management skills. Treasury is the responsibility of trained specialists whose expertise includes financial strategy formulation, a good knowledge of investments, the management of the treasury systems and banking relationships, and the management and understanding of market, interest and liquidity risks. Although ACTSA’s functions are concentrated in the following regions of South AfricGauteng, Cape and Kwazulu-Natal, membership is open across Southern Africa and with special permission even elsewhere in the world.
