Webinar: Modern FP&A at the time of "Black Swans"

The webinar is proudly sponsored by
Unit4

Every day the business environment is becoming increasingly unstable and unpredictable. The recent month is definitely a striking example of so many “black swans” the world has never experienced before.

Every single organisation in the world has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Nobody could predict this situation therefore the consequences of our unreadiness are huge. At the end of 2019, the budgets had been finalised - and in a matter of days, they rapidly became obsolete.

What is the role of FP&A at times of "black swans"? This new FP&A Trends webinar will discuss this question in more details.

The webinar is complimentary and vendor-agnostic.
