J.P. Morgan, FISPAN, and BPM are co-hosting a live web event titled, “From Manual AP to AI-Assisted Finance: The Shift to Proactive Execution.” The session will serve as a practical, step-by-step guide for growing companies to modernize their finance operations without overwhelming their teams or budgets.
WHAT: The webinar will explore how embedding corporate banking directly into an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system transforms it into an intelligent financial hub. The panel will discuss how organizations can shift from reactive processes to proactive execution. Key discussion points will include:
- Managing forward-looking liquidity: Scheduling AP disbursements up to 90 days out against real-time cash positions to eliminate manual spreadsheet work.
- Strengthening internal controls: Deploying approval rules and autonomous vendor verification right inside the ERP to automatically intercept business email compromise and invoice fraud.
- Optimizing workflow efficiency: Eliminating portal switching and streamlining operations by initiating payments, reviewing approvals, and completing bank reconciliations directly within the ERP.
The speakers will also explore AI and the future of finance automation, identify where it delivers the greatest value, and discuss why human judgment remains essential for effective financial oversight and risk management.
WHO: The panel features trusted advisors and industry leaders bridging the gap between traditional banking and modern fintech:
- Niki Acosta, Executive Director, Head of Digital and Payables Solutions at J.P. Morgan
- Corey Ruane, Partner, Technology & Advisory at BPM
- James Catliff, Product Consulting Lead at FISPAN (Moderator)
