Treasury management guidance launch
15 February, 10:15–11:45
SFHA recognises the inevitable risks associated with treasury activity, and of the Scottish Housing Regulator’s and lenders’ expectations of RSLs, and the need to ensure that RSLs are able to deliver against increasing standards in the future.
As a result, SFHA has commissioned DTP to provide treasury management guidance for members. The guidance will be launched during this webinar which will also allow a chance to ask questions directly to the guidance authors.
Attending this launch event will allow you to hear an overview of the guidance, how to use it and the benefits it will bring to your organisation. There will also be a chance to ask questions.
