Agenda Day 1

3:45 PM Panel Discussion: Global R2R Standardisation in Reality: What Works, What Fails, and What We’d Do Differenly

• What is the hardest part of moving from lift and shift to real process standardisation?

• What capabilities need to sit globally vs locally in modern R2R organisations? How do you decide what must be standardized globally vs where local deviation is acceptable?
• How does M&A continuously disrupt standardisation efforts, and how do you design processes that survive acquisitions?
• Where is AI already delivering productivity gains in finance—without big platform investments? What is not working yet with AI in R2R, despite the hype?
