Introduction: The Core Question Answered Zero-based budgeting generally outperforms top-down budgeting for process optimization because it forces every expense to be justified, eliminating hidden friction. When I first consulted a fintech startup, 70% of its spend was tied up in redundant tools and manual handoffs. By resetting the budget to
