📅 26 February 2026 | 🕒 Time: 10:00 AM (ET) / 3:00 PM (GMT) / 4:00 PM (CET)
According to Gartner (2025), Cost optimization is the top priority for banks in 2026. Margin pressure, regulatory demands and operational complexity require banks to understand their cost drivers and expense allocations more than ever. Yet building cost models that are trusted, maintained, and actually used in decision-making remains a challenge.
Paul Joubert, with 25 years experience allocating costs at Nedbank, has picked up a thing or two in this area. He joins cost & profitability expert Sander den Hartog in this interview-style webinar. Paul & Sander will tackle both long-standing challenges banks have wrestled with for years, alongside new pressures redefining the cost agenda.
Key takeaways from the session:
- Why banks build cost models and what success metrics they need to achieve
- How AI and IT investment is moving the needle for cost optimization
- How organizations move from building allocation models to integrating its insights
- Real examples from the sector of banks using cost models to support their decisions
