The FP&A Trends Webinar
Designing the FP&A Operating Model for the AI Era

The webinar is proudly sponsored by:

FP&A Trends WebinarYou have invested in better tools, better data, and new skills. Yet decisions still take too long, and the business does not always listen.

The latest FP&A Trends Survey shows that 47% of FP&A teams are only coping, while just 2% are fully optimized. Technology has moved on, but many FP&A operating models have not.

Join this FP&A Trends webinar on July 9 for the launch of the new FP&A Trends and EY paper, The FP&A Operating Model: Designing the Corporate Decision System for the AI Era. We will share a practical framework for identifying where your current model falls short and what to change first.

A recording of the event will be shared afterward with everyone who registers.
