May 24, 2026 – Financial Modeling Institute (FMI), the global professional body dedicated to advancing financial modeling through accreditation and thought leadership, today announced the launch of the 24-Hour Global Financial Modeling Conference: a free 24-hour online event dedicated entirely to financial modeling.
The conference will take place online on September 24, 2026, bringing together practitioners, experts and industry leaders from around the world for a continuous global program. Designed to run without interruption across all time zones, the event allows finance professionals to participate during their working day. Sessions will span Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the Americas.
“Financial modeling is a global discipline, but professional events have traditionally been built around one city and one time zone,” said Ian Schnoor, Executive Director of Financial Modeling Institute. “The Global Financial Modeling Conference was designed so that any finance professional, anywhere in the world, can participate during their working day, for free .”
The conference is built for professionals who build, review, or rely on financial models, including, FP&A teams, investment banking and corporate finance professionals, private equity and corporate development teams, accounting and advisory professionals, FMI candidates, and FMI accreditation holders.
Speakers presenting from organizations including Bloomberg, PwC, Training the Street, and KPMG will bring perspectives from across the profession.
Event Details
The full 24-hour agenda will be released soon. Attendees will be able to register for the event and choose the sessions most relevant to their time zone and professional interests. FMI Community members will also receive on-demand access to session recordings after the event.

Financial Modeling Institute (FMI) promotes awareness, excellence, and discipline in financial modeling through rigorous accreditation programs and thought leadership.
The Advanced Financial Modeler (AFM) Program is FMI’s flagship accreditation. Developed by the world’s best financial modelers, the Program guides candidates on how to build a world class financial model. The exam requires candidates to build a 3-statement financial model of a company from scratch under time pressure, making the AFM the only accreditation that proves financial modeling skills.
FMI’s accreditations are relevant for students and professionals working in asset management, banking, business development, credit analysis, private equity, venture capital, and other areas of finance and accounting.
