Rolling forecast model

A rolling forecast model is a financial planning tool that continuously updates predictions for future periods, typically monthly or quarterly. Instead of setting a fixed budget for the year, the forecast extends horizons as time passes—when one month concludes, a new future month is added. This ongoing process helps organizations stay flexible and responsive to changes in the business environment, allowing for more accurate planning and resource allocation. Essentially, it provides a constantly refreshed view of expected financial performance, supporting better decision-making in an evolving landscape.
