Where Does FP&A Sit in an Organization? | FP&A Structure Explained
In this video, we explain where the Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) function sits within an organization and how it interacts with different business teams.
FP&A typically operates within the finance function, but its role extends beyond traditional financial reporting. FP&A teams work closely with departments such as sales, operations, and senior management to support business planning, financial forecasting, and strategic decision-making.
This video explains how FP&A connects financial performance with business strategy and why it is often described as a business partnering function within organizations.

This video is part of the FP&A Foundations Series, which explains Financial Planning and Analysis concepts through structured explanations and practical examples.
