Course Overview

Uncertainty can take many forms. It may manifest as a natural disaster, the deterioration of a foreign currency in which your company has operations, geopolitical changes, the merger or acquisition of a competitor, or a global pandemic. Regardless of form, uncertainty does illuminate a certain truth: companies must face volatile business conditions with nimble planning, budgeting, and forecasting.

Budgeting and forecasting are very important aspects of business planning. 

Good budgets effectively allocate resources; provide information for decision-making, and an early warning system for unforeseen events. A poor budgeting process provides a false sense of security, inappropriate or inaccurate data, and re-enforces the status quo.

Most companies find budgeting a challenge even under stable conditions. The process is often cumbersome, with managers spending too much time trying to work to a budget that is forced upon them. When economic forecasts fluctuate on a weekly or even daily basis, creating one reliable budget to coordinate business units and track performance for an entire fiscal year is extraordinary. Following the traditional budget process will likely prove unproductive.

This CPE/CPD Finance Webinar will help you to make a budget and forecast during uncertainty.
