Intelligent FP&A (iFP&A) is a dynamic, continuous approach to analytics that greatly increases the “intelligence” of an organization and its ability to change fast.

At this Global FP&A Trends webinar, we discussed how one can leverage technology for FP&A Analytical Transformation and how to build intelligent FP&A infrastructure.
