CT Awards 2023 – Open for entry

The CorporateTreasurer is delighted to announce that our annual CT Awards for 2023 are now open for entry!

The publication’s annual flagship awards recognise excellence across wide range of treasury functions. They celebrate the achievements of treasury teams and CFOs across corporates and financial institutions; as well as the accomplishments of the transaction banking and service providers who help to shape and support the fast-evolving industry.

In order to acknowledge key participants within Asia’s treasury community, CT calls for all active treasurers, CFOs, Vendors and Financial Institutions to tell us who is worthy of the “best of the best” accolade in the region this year.

As always, we are looking to commend standout individuals and strategies that redefine how treasury functions are managed in Asia.
