Strategic Budgeting and Forecasting

Finance and Accounting|5 days|Classroom or live online

Strategic Budgeting and Forecasting looks at this work from the level at which it is resourced and defended. The focus is on consolidation, deferred tax and how both connect to what the organisation is actually trying to achieve. This matters at the strategic level because reporting standards keep moving and finance teams carry the consequence of getting them wrong. Delegates leave able to work confidently with internal controls, impairment testing and management accounting in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

Improve internal controls within their own organisation, measured against GRAP for public entities
Bring impairment testing into line with current good practice
