What EY can do for you

Uncertainty of the current environment has reaffirmed that speed and agility in planning, forecasting and analysis is a necessity rather than a luxury. When combined with the demands of meeting growth targets, cost reduction initiatives and increasing regulatory oversight, finance functions must have the ability to respond to multiple simultaneous demands. These include:

  • Optimising the deployment of financial resources (capital, liquidity, risk-weighted assets (RWAs) etc.)
  • Dynamic reforecasting of balance sheet and income statement to reflect rapid changes in assumptions
  • Supporting senior business leadership decision making with constraints planning capability
  • Deploying enhanced visualisation, user configurability and drill down capability across the enterprise
  • Planning and facilitating the development of enterprise and business line strategy.

Doing nothing is not a viable option, any delay in response may lead to sustained operational inefficiencies, opportunity losses and loss of investor trust.

Finance functions must become more flexible and agile to provide quicker insights with more confidence to enable faster decision making. We bring together our business and technology solutions to help organisations transform Finance and FP&A, making it a strategic driver of value creation.

Key benefits include:

  • Quicker and better decision-making, focussed on taking action
  • Real-time ability to evaluate scenarios and forecasts
  • Using insights to uncover untapped business opportunities
  • Enhanced returns on balance sheet and investments
  • Increased business profitability
  • Increased trust and investor confidence
