August Event - Treasury Best Practices Panel
COAFP hosted its annual treasury management best practices panel this past week at Ohio State’s Fawcett Center! Our membership gained perspective into the treasury and risk management operations of three local middle market firms; IGS Energy, Advanced Drainage Systems, and Hexion Inc. COAFP is so thankful for our panelists: Devin Crist, Manager of Treasury and Risk at IGS Energy, Michael Lydon, Assistant Treasurer at Advanced Drainage Systems, and Raquel Alvarex Mateos, Cash Manager North America at Hexion Inc. We greatly appreciated their insight on relevant topics such as application of faster payments, integrated receivables, advanced financial technology such as APIs and Blockchain, and risk mitigation strategies in today’s environment.

COAFP Awarded for 11th Year Running!
at the Annual Regional Officer’s Meeting in Washington D.C., July 2018
Cindy Clark and Jenny Morrison represented COAFP at the national Association for Financial Professionals (AFP) 2018 Regional Officer’s Meeting (ROM) in Washington D.C. It is a meeting where AFP Regional Associations gather, share ideas, discuss strategy and network, all with the goal of creating better regional associations for their Members.
For the 11th consecutive year, COAFP won an award at the annual ROM Idea Fair. This year, COAFP won in the “Best Marketing Idea” category. Under the leadership of President Linda Opundo and Buckeye Financial Forum Co-Chairs Cindy Clark and Clay Lanctot, COAFP asked Buckeye Financial Forum speakers to advertise COAFP on both their websites and social media feeds before and after the Buckeye Financial Forum, for an agreed upon time period. Benefits included exposure to a different audience driving new visitor traffic to our website, building enthusiasm for the event with existing members, and different feeds mentioning COAFP move the organization up in search engine rankings. The result: Our 2018 Buckeye Financial Forum had its highest-ever attendance!
