FP&A Trends Digest
Issue #89 - 3 June 2023

Dear colleagues,

In the ever-evolving field of Financial Planning and Analysis, the ability to anticipate future trends has become paramount.

In this newsletter issue, we delve into the realm of Predictive Planning and Analytics, exploring its opportunities, challenges, and strategies for successful implementation.

Over the past three months, the FP&A Trends Group team has collaborated with 15 thought leaders and senior practitioners from leading companies, exploring how they harmonise the planning processes by combining Predictive Analytics within xP&A. I am delighted to share a comprehensive research paper, which highlights the key findings.

Additionally, you will find articles and a video case study that show the immense power of Predictive Analytics in driving data-informed decisions.

I hope this issue will help you unlock the future through the lens of Predictive Planning and Analytics in FP&A.

Best regards,

Larysa Melnychuk, CEO and Founder
FP&A Trends Group & International FP&A Board
