Commercial or professional procedures that are accepted as being correct or most effective.
For example, the Association of Corporate Treasurers issues guidance on how to perform certain treasury activities, and this guidance can be considered to be best practice in relation to those activities.
Some more recently published codes often refer to "good" practice, rather than "best" practice. However, at this stage the terms "good" practice, "better" practice and "best" practice can be viewed as fully interchangeable.
Examples include the FX Global Code, setting out good practice principles for foreign exchange market participants, and the UK Corporate Governance Code (for larger UK companies).
- Governance and best practice in treasury
- "Best practice can mean so many different things, especially in treasury.
- But one lens to look at it through is ESG. The ‘G’ pillar (governance) is a fundamental part of best practice.
- Good governance isn’t just about policy and procedure, it’s about creating structures that promote transparency, accountability, and responsible decision-making.
- At its core, best practice in treasury is anchored in governance that not only protects the organisation but also drives sustainable (in every sense of the word), long-term value."
