FP&A Trends Digest
Issue #44 - 14 August 2021

Dear colleagues,

Greetings from charming Santorini!

Although we have successfully adopted digital meetings as a new-age opportunity, it is not an exaggeration to say that global travel has slowly resumed and brought joy to people all over the world.

We are continuing to update you on the latest trends and developments in the modern FP&A. This time we have taken a closer look into the following hot topics:

• key advantages of AI-based intelligent reporting automation,

• typical barriers and breakthroughs for successful business partnering, and

• crucial conditions required for synergistic and strong FP&A department.

At the bottom of the digest, we have added invitation links to our upcoming webinars. I invite you to join us and explore the trending FP&A topics, as well as perhaps sharing the findings with your peers.

If you have any suggestions, innovations or case studies, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Enjoy the issue and stay safe!

 

Kind regards,

Larysa Melnychuk

CEO and Founder
