The ACT Prize is offered to selected universities with courses that contain treasury related disciplines to promote the treasury profession and to support those working towards a treasury career. The ACT Prize recognises these students’ achievements and through this scheme we encourage the relationship between educational institutions and practising treasury professionals. The ACT works with these universities to organise guest lectures hosted by treasury practitioners which provides students with the opportunity to learn from an experienced practitioner.
