AI can help, but finance teams need a practical approach that fits audit-ready standards, regulatory constraints, and the judgment-heavy nature of financial work. This workshop is built for that reality.

## FAQ

**Q: Can we use AI with confidential financial data in Switzerland?**
We address this directly. The workshop covers what to share, what not to share, and how to verify that your Microsoft 365 tenant or OpenAI Enterprise environment meets your institution's data residency and confidentiality requirements.

**Q: Is AI accurate enough for financial reporting and audit trails?**
We teach 'Audit-Aware AI'—where AI is used for structuring and drafting narratives, while calculation and verification remain in your controlled ERP or spreadsheet environment. Every output requires a human review step.

**Q: Does this work with Microsoft 365 and Excel Copilot?**
Yes. We have a dedicated focus on Microsoft Copilot for finance, covering Excel for data insights and narrative generation, Word for reporting, and Teams for coordination—the standard approved environment for many Swiss institutions.

**Q: Is this relevant for private banking and wealth management?**
Absolutely. We have a specific track for private banking covering client communication, portfolio update drafting, KYC/AML documentation support, and personalised investment proposal workflows.

**Q: What ROI can a finance team expect after this training?**
Most teams report a 30–50% reduction in time spent on narrative drafting for monthly and quarterly reports, and measurably higher quality in client correspondence within the first month of adoption.

**Q: Can this be delivered to our full finance team on-site?**
Yes. On-site delivery is the preferred format. We tailor the content to your institution's approved tools, workflows, and regulatory environment—FINMA, MiFID II, or internal standards.
