TISonline seeking new members
TISonline - CIPFA’s online resource - is seeking new members, who are willing to share their expertise and help update guidance. With the significant changes in the financial sector during the past year, the Investments editorial board is looking to update Investments to take account of the credit crunch and its implications for local authority treasury management.
The editorial board meets two or three times a year in London to discuss drafts and updating requirements, with board members taking responsibility for drafting or updating a section that suits their skills and experience. For further information and to discuss what is involved, please contact Maria Menezes on maria.menezes@cipfa.org.uk or 020 8667 8153.
