The FP&A Trends Webinar. The Power of Driver-Based Planning in the Age of AI

The webinar was proudly sponsored by:

 

When your assumptions change, how easily can you see the impact in your models? The FP&A Trends Survey 2025 shows that only 2% of organizations use dynamic, AI-powered driver-based planning, yet they achieve significantly higher forecast quality. Many teams still rely on static models and fragmented data, limiting their ability to respond. AI enables real-time prediction and simulation, but the challenge is combining it with driver-based thinking to make planning more responsive and effective.

Check out the recording of the FP&A Trends Webinar to hear how senior finance practitioners build dynamic models, uncover key drivers, and enable real-time, scenario-based planning.
