Advisory panels provide support and input into important areas of the ACT, helping Council and the Executive team to deliver our strategic objectives through the expertise, market knowledge, contacts and enthusiasm of treasurers.
Current groups include:
For individuals, these groups provide a way to get involved, give something back to the profession, develop their own personal networks and participation is a rich source of CPD. They also provide a pipeline of talented members for potential future Council membership.
For the ACT, the most important function of these groups is their representative role, providing insight and understanding of the profession and a means to gather a range of views and feedback from the wider membership. Membership of these groups is drawn from across all levels, sectors and location and provides Council with a fair and transparent way of gathering member views, helping it make decisions in a considered and inclusive basis.
The ACT Advisory Panel adds value to the ACT by giving its experience and insight to enhance the strategic thinking of the organisation. Formed of a cross-section of individuals from treasury, stakeholder-type organisations (regulatory, banks, etc), government and professional (eg finance, education, digital), the Panel gives an external perspective in its advice and challenge to management, generating new ideas and some blue sky thinking.
