Beyond Generative AI: How Agentic AI Is Reshaping the Future of Accounting and Finance

Artificial intelligence is rapidly moving beyond chatbots and productivity tools toward Agentic AI—systems capable of coordinating tasks and executing complex workflows. This shift is beginning to reshape accounting and finance, from analysis and reporting to audit, assurance and decision-making. In this masterclass, Professor Yin Wang from Singapore Management University (SMU) will explore how Generative and Agentic AI are transforming professional work, the implications for jobs and careers, and why governance, accountability and human judgement become even more important as AI adoption deepens. Participants will discover the emerging skill sets needed to work with, supervise and create value from intelligent systems in the AI era.
