The Digital Pan-Asian FP&A Board: From Traditional to Better and Beyond Budgeting

The Digital Pan-Asian FP&A Board is proudly sponsored by:


 

Third North American FP&A Board​

It is commonly agreed that the traditional budgeting process is time-consuming and costly. It rarely focuses on strategy and adds little value. Although traditional budgets have evolved over the years, they can hardly meet the challenges of the modern economic and business environment. Join our global discussion on whether Beyond Budgeting is the best alternative. At the meeting, we will discuss whether it is realistic to abandon the budget and transform the whole process.

The Digital Pan-Asian FP&A Board will be held on the 3rd of February 2021 from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM SGT. 

Join our experienced and international panel of experts to learn how to move from Traditional to Better and Beyond Budgeting.

If the timing is not right, you can listen to the recording later as it will be available to all registrants afterwards.

What is International FP&A Board?

The International FP&A Board was created in London (UK) in 2013 to guide the development and promotion of the best practices in Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A). Since then, the Board chapters have been successfully established in 27 cities and 16 countries across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia, and North America. They aim to identify and support new global trends, valued skill sets and leadership practices in modern corporate Financial Planning & Analysis. 

The Fourth Digital Pan-Asian FP&A Board will unite our Asian FP&A Board chapters from Singapore, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Shanghai and Tokyo. We are also looking forward to inviting guests from other parts of Asia where FP&A Board is not geographically established yet.
