The Cash Management Profession
by MaestriManaging corporate cash effectively is an integral part of a company’s success. Advances over the last 50 years have resulted in a cash management discipline that has a significant impact on a company’s bottom line and on shareholder value. In the process of this development, the profession has broadened its focus to encompass the functions of the treasurer (as treasury management) and financial management.
The Association for Financial Professionals (AFP) in the United States has more than 14,000 members and provides a source of ongoing professional development through its certification programs, the Certified Cash Manager (CCM) and Certificate in Finance and Treasury Management. A 550-page body of knowledge called “Essentials of Cash Management,” now in its seventh edition, supports the CCM program. In addition, there are 62 regional AFP and Treasury Management Associations. The AFP also supports its membership by providing financial tools and publications, career development, continuing education, research, representation to legislators and regulators, and the development of industry standards.

Like causes produces like effects. You cannot accumulate a fortune by taking the road that leads to poverty. It needs no prophet to tell us that those who live fully up to their means, without any thought of a reverse in this life, can never attain a pecuniary independence. [...]
