Unlock the Power of Collaboration Between Property and Finance Teams

In this webinar, we explore the critical but often overlooked synergy between lease accounting and lease management. Property teams typically focus on the commercial aspects of lease portfolios—negotiating terms, maximizing space efficiency, and managing day-to-day operations. Meanwhile, finance teams are tasked with ensuring compliance, accurate financial reporting, and adhering to IFRS 16 lease accounting standards. Both perspectives are essential, but too often, they operate in silos.

This event is designed to bridge that gap. We'll show how aligning the goals of property and finance teams can lead to significant cost savings, operational efficiencies, and improved compliance across the board. Attendees will learn how advanced lease management systems can help integrate the commercial and compliance sides, fostering collaboration and making data-driven decision-making easier.

Key topics:

Commercial vs. IFRS 16 Compliance: Understanding the differing priorities of property and finance teams, and why both perspectives are critical for effective lease management.
Common Pain Points: Explore the shared and distinct challenges that property and finance teams face when managing lease portfolios, from data discrepancies to misaligned goals.
Optimising Lease Portfolios: Strategies for balancing the commercial goals of the property team with the compliance needs of finance, ensuring both teams contribute to driving better outcomes.
Driving Decisions with Data: Leveraging analytics to create shared KPIs and enhance decision-making across teams, ensuring alignment and performance.
Preparing for the Future: From sustainability to regulatory changes, discover how to future-proof your lease portfolio while maintaining financial stability and operational efficiency.
