  • HMRC – to give the regulatory point of view,
  • Group Controllers from Keller Group and Barclays Bank,

  • leading lights from PwC and KPMG.

Commenting on the event, Noel Gorvett, AMOSCA’s CEO said, “After a lapse of a couple of years there is a real sense that companies are seeking to accelerate and enhance their group financial reporting processes.”

In today’s uncertain conditions well honed performance management applications are essential to gaining business insight and competitiveness.  Financial reporting is a vital part of gaining mastery over Enterprise Performance Management which is why we welcome this innovative conference programme.”

“But the event also provides guidance and solutions for overcoming new challenges such as iXBRL and with time running out for compliance it is important that companies have a detailed plan for implementing HMRC’s new standard.” he added.

“We will be attending the exhibition to explain how our Oracle/Hyperion based solutions together with our specialised solutions can drive process improvements in financial reporting yet provide a wider platform for enterprise performance management.”
