Gaynor was a strong supporter of ACT activities and encouraged many members of her team to join and participate.
Fellow. The Association of Corporate Treasurers was formed in 1979 and it wasn’t long before Derek became one of a small group of pathfinders who really invented the profession of treasury.
Fellow. David's first job in treasury was at National Power. After Cable & Wireless and EMAP, David moved to the interim market where he had some diverse locations taking him to Sierra Leone for African Minerals and UK locations at Boots, Mondelez (Kraft Foods), John Lewis, DS Smith and Serco.
Founding Member and Honorary Fellow. Peter was one of the ACT ‘Pioneers’ and was instrumental in the formation of the ACT in 1979 and the early development of the treasury profession. He was a member of the very first Council and Chairman of Council from 1982-84.
Fellow. Anthony played a significant role in the development of the ACT and was a tremendous advocate for the treasury profession. A member from 1984, he contributed to several committees and working groups, including chairing the Editorial Committee between 1994 and 1997. Read more.
Honorary Fellow. Alastair was an Adviser to the Governor of the Bank of England and an Executive Director of the Bank. He was a strong friend and supporter of the ACT. With his commitment to financial stability he was a valuable sounding-board and on occasion a conduit for the views the ACT held on issues affecting corporate life in the UK and elsewhere. Alastair was a member of the ACT's Advisory Board and we are very extremely grateful for his support and contribution.
Honorary Fellow. Rupert was a huge supporter of the ACT. His contribution was immense and he provided wise counsel for more than 25 years, most recently with the ACT's application for a Royal Charter (which was granted in 2013). Even in his retirement Rupert remained very active, and it was only in Autumn 2012 that he finally retired from active membership of the ACT's Policy & Technical committee. The ACT were deeply saddened by his passing, but we were touched that he chose to spend part of his life enriching ours.
The ACT's First Director General and Honorary Fellow. Gerry joined the ACT’s governing council soon after its formation in 1979. He held subsequent roles included that of President and Director General.
Honorary Life President. If there was one man who could claim credit for the creation and establishment of The Association of Corporate Treasurers it was Norman Tribble. The treasury function began to emerge as an important area of corporate activity in the UK in the 1970s although it had for a long time had a position of considerable standing in US companies – and indeed some of the largest UK companies such as Shell, BP, ICI and Unilever.
