We are committed to the promotion of opportunities for all participants in financial markets. This applies to our own teams, the treasury teams of our corporate members, and teams in the financial institutions they work with.
We believe that, over time, increasingly diverse teams across the market will provide better advice. This leads to better outcomes for our members – and, by extension, the UK economy.
Inclusion is at the heart of many of our initiatives.
As part of our Inclusion Initiative, this playbook provides practical ideas to help banks and corporate treasury teams build stronger, more inclusive, and effective relationships.
These awards recognise the outstanding individuals who have championed positive change in diversity and sustainability in the treasury profession.
We support career development for those unable to fund their training through the ACT Fitch Treasury Scholarship and the ACT Educational Trust.
Our transparent governance includes the ACT Ethical Code and a speaking-up policy. Our governing Council is made up of a diverse range of members.
We work with the treasury community to create conferences and events that welcome diverse speakers and delegates.
The ACT was one of the founding signatories to the Federation of Awarding Bodies EDI pledge to champion equity, diversity and inclusion through our qualifications programme.
