Getting Excel Ready for Enterprise AI

March 18 • 11:00 AM Sydney, Australia

Excel infrastructure plays an essential supporting role to core banking platforms—powering regulatory reporting, capital calculations, and financial controls. Yet it remains a large, highly unproductive surface that has been difficult for institutions to understand, govern, or improve.

This webinar explores a new way of thinking about enterprise Excel—one that makes the underlying infrastructure visible and controlled, creating the foundation for automation, productivity, and scalable AI.

 

About the Webinar

For finance and risk leaders ready to bring visibility to their Excel infrastructure.

Across banks and capital markets institutions, Excel infrastructure underpins many of the processes that support core systems—from regulatory reporting and capital calculations to financial controls and management reporting. It is large, deeply embedded, and essential—but also highly manual, opaque, and difficult to improve. As a result, it has remained one of the most unproductive surfaces in the enterprise.

This session introduces a new way of thinking about enterprise Excel. Instead of treating spreadsheets as isolated files, leading institutions are beginning to view Excel as critical infrastructure that must be inventoried, classified, and controlled. This shift is still underappreciated, but it creates the foundation for automation, productivity gains, and scalable, governed AI.

What We'll Cover

Why Excel Infrastructure Is a Board-Level Issue

Excel infrastructure supports core financial processes, yet it often remains invisible to leadership. As AI becomes a strategic priority, this hidden layer is emerging as both a major risk and a major opportunity.

The Scale of the Excel Surface Area

Enterprise Excel environments are large, deeply embedded, and difficult to untangle. We’ll explore why this infrastructure has historically been impossible to inventory or control at scale.

Why AI Initiatives Stall

AI performs best in environments that are visible, consistent, and controlled. When spreadsheet infrastructure is opaque and unmanaged, AI amplifies risk instead of productivity.
