The time has come for treasurers to step up to the plate. In a new world where the financial professions are in the spotlight, the opportunity is there for treasurers to take on new challenges and responsibilities, including those in the Boardroom. This was the theme of the keynote address by Ronan Dunne, Head of Finance at mmO2, to corporate treasurers attending the UK Treasurers’ Conference (UKT) held by The Association of Corporate Treasurers (ACT) in association with EuroFinance Conferences in Brighton from 29 April to 1 May.
