ABOUT AFP CTP

Headquartered outside of Washington, D.C. and located regionally in Singapore, the Association for Financial Professionals (AFP) is the professional society committed to advancing the success of treasury and finance members and their organizations. AFP established and administers the Certified Treasury Professional and Certified Corporate FP&A Professional credentials, which set standards of excellence in treasury and finance. Each year, AFP hosts the largest networking conference worldwide for more than 7,000 corporate financial professionals.

The Certified Treasury Professional® (CTP) designation serves as a benchmark of competency in the finance profession and is recognized as the leading credential in corporate treasury worldwide. Sponsored by the Association for Financial Professionals® (AFP), the CTP® credential signifies that you have demonstrated the knowledge and skills required to effectively execute critical functions related to corporate liquidity, capital and risk management. In today’s environment, companies are looking for proven and ethical professionals. They are looking for CTPs.

Plus, after earning the CTP, you are committed to keeping your knowledge current by meeting continuing education requirements. CTPs remain relevant throughout their career.

Benefits of earning the CTP credential:
  • Career Flexibility
    The CTP credential is the standard for treasury. If you are looking to stand out and make a move in your career, the CTP can help you do just that.
  • Competency Validation
    CTPs demonstrate a mastery of knowledge and skills required to effectively execute critical functions related to corporate liquidity, capital and risk management. And because CTPs need to earn continuing education credits to maintain the credential, they are constantly learning new practices and standards.
  • Standards of Ethical Conduct
    CTPs have an obligation to their employers, co-workers, customers, shareholders, the profession and themselves to maintain the highest standards of conduct and to encourage their peers to do likewise. CTP holders must agree to abide by these ethical standards.
  • Employers Want CTPs
    More than 80% of Fortune 500 companies employ CTPs.
  • Build a Professional Network
    CTPs can connect through AFP. Maintain your AFP membership and be part of a global network via the virtual AFP Collaborate group, or attend the largest conference for treasury and finance professionals each year.
