The Digital German FP&A Board
Five Critical Roles for Every Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) Team

The event is proudly sponsored by:

Pan-Asian FP&A Board

Traditionally, Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) teams were made of analysts. Today, in this incredible environment of constant change and uncertainties, the synergistic teams have to be multi-skilled. What are those emerging roles that we have to play in order to be successful in planning and forecasting?

We can see five critical FP&A roles that are necessary to fulfil demands from the business and the wider environment: FP&A Architect, FP&A Analyst, FP&A Data Scientist, FP&A Storyteller, FP&A Influencer. Furthermore, there are some signs that point to the creation of two new positions that will greatly expand FP&A's total capabilities and influence.

Join the Digital German FP&A Board on April 7th at 5:00 PM CEST to learn more about the critical FP&A Roles.

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

What is the International FP&A Board?

The International FP&A Board was created in London (UK) in 2013, and now has chapters in 27 cities and 16 countries around the world. It aims to develop and promote the best practices in modern corporate Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A), identifying and supporting new global trends, valued skillsets, and leadership practices. 

The Digital German FP&A Board will unite the members of the Frankfurt FP&A Board chapter. We also look forward to inviting guests from other parts of Germany where the FP&A Board is not geographically established yet.
