The 2022 planning cycle, given recent economic data points, could be anything but another round of the same. Specifically, it will be critical to consider the impact of rising and sustained inflation in our next year forecasts.

It wasn’t long ago that banking customers would remain loyal for life. That’s not because they were happy with their service – many just didn’t have a choice. Historically, financial institutions have made it difficult for people to open accounts elsewhere, and there wasn’t much of a differentiation between what banks offered anyway. Over the last few years, and even more so since the pandemic has gravitated to increasingly digital experiences, that’s started to shift.

If you surveyed financial leaders on what's top-of-mind these days, lease accounting would probably make the top ten. Maybe top three. But it’s well-warranted given how much of a curveball ASC 842 has thrown at financial organizations and already bleary-eyed accountants, particularly with the adoption deadline for private companies right around the bend.
