Integrated Financial Planning

The mother of all planning

Financial planning is considered the mother of planning. With its focus on accounts and/or cost centers, it often appears somewhat antiquated, but its influence should not be underestimated. After all, the core objective of financial planning is far from being the planning itself. Rather, it should show how dynamic changes affect the company's financial situation. To this end, individual sub-plans and their cause-and-effect relationships must also be included. Only comprehensive, integrated financial planning can provide reliable and trustworthy planning figures for corporate management.

Compass for corporate management

Financial planning includes everything from strategic business planning to detailed cost center planning and brings together the results of operational and client-oriented planning. It is therefore a central core element in the management of the company. Particularly important is the possibility of accessing detailed data in order to be able to understand the assumptions made for the planning data.
