The Digital UK & Ireland FP&A Board: Moving from Traditional Management Accounting to Extended Planning and Analysis (xP&A)
The Digital UK & Ireland FP&A Board is proudly sponsored by:
In the current uncertain business environment, FP&A is increasing its scope and complexity by moving out of the traditional Management Accounting framework. In fact, FP&A is spreading its influence beyond just finance into the entire organisation.
Gartner forecasted that by 2024, 70% of new financial planning and analysis projects (FP&A) will become extended planning and analysis (xP&A) projects, expanding their scope beyond the finance domain into other areas of enterprise planning and analysis.
But what will happen to our traditional Management Accounting? How xP&A is enhancing the Corporate Performance Management? How can FP&A professionals get ready for this transition?
Join our next Digital UK & Ireland FP&A Board to find out the answers. The event will be held online on 21 January 2021 from 4:30 PM to 6:00 PM GMT.
Our international panel of experts will explore how to move from Traditional Management Accounting to Extended Planning and Analysis (xP&A).
With the help of modern technology, we will try to make this digital meeting as interactive as possible by incorporating panel discussion, polling questions, Q&A sessions.
What is International FP&A Board?
The International FP&A Boardwas 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 Digital UK & Ireland FP&A Board will unite the members of London FP&A Board chapter. We would like to extend this invitation to finance practitioners from other parts of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland where the FP&A Board is not geographically established yet.
