Ethics

Ethics is a core technical competency for treasurers identified by the ACT's Competency Framework.

Ethical behaviour is a mind-set and underpins all business activity. Treasury professionals need to appreciate why ethics matter, to act ethically at all times and to lead by example.

Compliance and audit

'Compliance and audit' is a core technical competency for treasurers identified by the ACT's Competency Framework.

Treasury’s activities need to be clearly defined, executed and monitored and this includes the independent review provided by regular audits. Policies and procedures need to be integrated into the organisation’s risk management approach. Reporting must be provided for all stakeholders (both internal and external).
