Christian Children’s Fund Treasurer Sassan Parandeh recently contributed his expertise to two treasury-related publications.
Parandeh authored “Foreign Corrupt Practices Act: The global treasury role,” which was featured in the quarterly Journal of Corporate Treasury Management in September, and he was quoted several times in three articles in Treasury Perspectives, an annual magazine written for the global corporate treasury market. It is published every October by The Economist Group.
Parandeh’s article in the Journal of Corporate Treasury Management focused on anti-bribery laws, with an emphasis on the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) signed into law by President Jimmy Carter in 1977.
“Treasury practitioners should implement simple and effective anti-corruption risk management measures that help detect bribes for foreign government officials,” he writes.
In Treasury Perspectives, Parandeh was quoted in three separate articles discussing treasury workstations, hedging and the legal wrangles of global fund transfers. In the hedging story, Parandeh offered his thoughts on the detrimental impact of accounting rules in Europe and the United States for small and mid-sized global organizations.
“This is a real dilemma for treasurers, should they mitigate risk using the most effective strategy, or should they mitigate risk with what they know the accounting for?” he told the magazine.
Parandeh has worked at CCF since September 2006. He has 18 years of treasury experience.
