Turkish Bankers Association – Candidacy and Policy Proposals
Yilmaz Mumunov Sezgin Pamuk, CPA, FRM
January 2012
Why do we send this?
We believe that the Turkish Bankers Association (TBA) needs a fresh executive board with new members in order to increase the visibility of Turkish professionals within the finance sector of the City and to create a better networking environment for its members.
We believe reform is required in order to achieve the goals of the Association. If elected we will: Make improvements to the Governance Code and website
Create new networking opportunities and have more effective communication between executive board and members
Set a new vision and mission for the Association
Develop effective policies
Ensure adequate financial resources
Enhance the Association’s public image
New Governance Code
The rules and bylaws of the Association shall be made available to each
member. All members shall be bound by the written rules and bylaws of the Association
Understand and respect the relationship between the board and members. Put owning association members at the heart of the association as a principle Carry out board business efficiently Bring Governing Document and “Charter” up to date in order to promote a
more active and accountable executive board structure. Chairperson position subject to a maximum of 2 terms Board member position subject to a maximum of 3 terms To ensure continuity of the board, any member who has been absent for
more than 6 months to be replaced (Executive Committee members who have not attended in person any meetings of the General Committee over the preceding 6 months or any Annual General Meeting shall cease to be a member of the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee will reserve the right to reinstate a member if the non attendance is deemed justified)
1 month handover period after each election
More transparent board and governance
Disclose complete list of revenue and expenses to all Ordinary members on
TBA internal website, which would be accessible with the membership login
More transparent and accountable by cutting the cost and publishing online all transactions over £50
Executive Members nominated for that purpose by the Executive Committee shall take minutes of the proceedings at all General Meetings of the Association
Executive Committee meeting minutes and action points to be disclosed to Ordinary members (minutes of the board meetings of how to transact current business shall be entered in a book and confirmed at the next meeting)
Semi-annual progress report (acquisition of new sponsors and members) to be provided to members
Turkish Investment Forum - London
While strictly politically neutral, the Association should nevertheless be
proud to serve as a forum for investment and economic development debate on the current issues in, and future direction of Turkey. Due to Turkey’s strong financial system, the financial crisis has had little impact and has therefore become a centre of interest to foreign investors. We would work on establishing the first “Turkish Investment Forum” in the United Kingdom to be held annually going forward. This event will attract leading M&A and private equity dealmakers, legal advisors, portfolio managers and corporate figures involved in Turkish investment activity and also some leading political figures from Turkey would be invited. By being part of the debate and having more guest speakers from Turkey and elsewhere our members will have access to influential policy makers and cutting edge insights.
External Networking
Fellowships and friendships develop if members are in regular contact thus
the TBA will maintain and cherish the tradition of having more regular and better organised monthly meetings. The TBA also will be more active in organising numerous social events for its members and guests, including charity balls, exhibitions and new Sunday brunches.
TBA would be outward looking, offering more creative and useful networking opportunities to members. There would be events organised with the other City clubs (Azerbaijani, Polish, Lithuanian, Georgian, Ukrainian, Russian, Serbian, Georgian, Bulgarian and Romanian). Many joint events will be held with such clubs, and their success will lead to the creation of a more formal framework for cooperation. The TBA could also be more active in maintaining contacts with like-minded Turkish Associations / clubs and individuals in other countries and cities: Paris, Moscow, New York, Geneva, Frankfurt etc.
Internal Networking
Provides opportunities for members to create a profile where member can
use this as recruitment or job seeker platform
Develop relations with top class recruiters and introduce candidates
Internal forums (exchange all kinds of ideas; exam experience, job experience )
Active job postings
Monthly drinks would be changed to the third Thursday of each month
Monthly drinks would be announced at least a month in advance and at least
once a quarter would be held in Canary Wharf
New Website
Enhanced and better functionality in order to respond to members’ needs
Ordinary members’ internal website with access to internal documents
Easy payment method – PayPal
More interactive website developed and maintained by professional webmaster
