SPEF members will be given free membership to ICSMs premium service for six months and then at a discounted rate.
ICSM managing director Ian Carrotte is looking at opening a dedicated Scottish office, either in Glasgow or Edinburgh, in the new year.

ICSM now has 4,500-5,000 member companies.
SPEF director Jim Raeburn said it was vitally important for members to have as much financial knowledge about their customer base as possible.
