The ACT’s North of England Regional Group held its inaugural conference and networking event in November in Ainley Top, Huddersfield. The half-day forum was supported by Lloyds TSB and attracted a wide range of corporate treasurers, finance managers, competing bankers and an evidently ahead-of-thegame headhunter. The event was joint-chaired by specialist treasury consultant Graham Bond and Ian Leece, Group Treasurer, Kelda Group, joint organisers of the ACT’s Yorkshire and Humberside Regional Group.
