The State of Finance 2026
The average FP&A team spends the majority of its time collecting and formatting data — not analysing it.
That's been true for a long time. What's changed is that the technology to fix it is finally accessible, and the pressure to actually do something about it is real.
But "do something about it" is vague. The space is noisy. Everyone has a product to sell or a framework to certify. And in the meantime, the month-end close still needs to happen, the board pack is due Friday, and there's no obvious moment to stop and rethink how things work.
This is a space for finance professionals who are trying to figure it out without the hype — people who know their models could be smarter, their reporting could be faster, and their time could be better spent, but aren't sure where to start.
No roadmaps. No transformation promises. Just the work.
