ACFS Platinum Sponsorship | Australian Centre for Financial Studies

Platinum Corporate Sponsorship

PLATINUM sponsorship provides a key stakeholder position with the Centre and is preferably for a three (3) year agreement (negotiable), in which both parties enter a Memorandum of Understanding specifying annually agreed objectives and progress reporting towards those objectives.

The strategic direction and activities of ACFS are overseen by a Board of Management, which comprises consortium members and corporate sponsors (who provide operational funding support as part of their involvement at this level).

Through membership of the ACFS Board and the Industry Advisory Committee (IAC), a platinum corporate sponsor will become involved in the strategic management and research direction of ACFS and be engaged with a cross section of Financial Services leaders.
