FP&A Trends Digest
Issue #56 - 05 February 2022

Dear colleagues,

Opinions vary wildly about our increasingly digital lives. Some sing the praises of modern technology, while others wish we would all just put down our phones!

One thing is for sure, though: when it comes to FP&A, there is a compelling case for digitalisation. Digital FP&A generates real-time analytical insights by using both internal and external data, with minimal manual effort. It brings speed, flexibility, and exceptional granularity.

This digest collects our insightful content about FP&A’s digital transformation. It includes an article with key takeaways from the CFO research about the top digital initiatives; a piece on how and why Integrated Business Planning is going digital; two practical case studies from leading companies; and an invitation to complete our 2022 Empowerment Survey.

At the bottom of the digest, you will also find details of our upcoming events.

Enjoy the issue and stay safe!

 

Kind regards,

Larysa Melnychuk

CEO and Founder

FP&A Trends Group &

International FP&A Board
