In this incredible business environment of high uncertainty and risk, many organisations have found themselves in the realm of “Unknown Unknowns".

So how we can plan for Unknown? How can we achieve flexible and dynamic Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) processes that support decision-making under uncertainty?

The answer may be Integrated FP&A. A crucial framework for planning in the world of unknown unknowns, Integrated FP&A helps organisations to close the gap between unaligned vertical and horizontal planning processes.

Watch the recording of this Digital Nordic & Benelux FP&A Board to learn more about Planning for the Unknown.
