Overview
Why AI in Finance and Accounting Matters
AI is becoming part of everyday finance work, from financial reporting and forecasting to data analysis and risk management. Recent 2026 findings show why finance and accounting professionals need the skills to use it effectively.
- AI adoption is already widespread in Singapore finance – 64% of Singapore financial institutions are actively deploying AI across key business functions, while another 35% are piloting or researching it. None reported having no plans to adopt AI.
- Finance teams are seeing measurable returns – More than three-quarters of organisations globally now use AI in financial planning, reporting and commercial analysis, with 71% saying it is meeting or exceeding their return-on-investment expectations.
- AI skills are becoming a core accountancy requirement – In 2026, ACRA embedded AI competencies across all 44 job roles and 11 career tracks in Singapore’s refreshed Skills Framework for Accountancy.

SUCCESS STORIES
What Our Students Say About Vertical Institute
I completed the Data Science & AI course with Vertical Institute, which covered Python fundamentals and an introduction to AI models. One key takeaway from the course was something lecturer Stan Neo emphasised: “Learning to Learn”. His guidance, along with self-directed learning resources and coding challenges, made the journey all the more enriching.
This course sharpened my AI skills through hands-on practice with ChatGPT, Copilot, and Claude, while strengthening my prompt engineering techniques. I also explored advanced methods like Tree/Graph of Thought prompting and Custom GPTs. Grateful to Vertical Institute for a comprehensive course.
It was truly a wonderful learning experience for me personally, especially since I was able to work directly on tools such as Excel, SQL and Tableau. Such hands-on experience allowed me to think critically about how best we can present insights through data visualisation.
