Key takeaways:
  • Automation & Digitization Remain Top Priority: CFOs are still prioritising automation and digitization of finance departments in their investments.​​
  • Forecasting Needs to be Optimized: The uncertainty caused by the disruptions of the last two years has CFOs focusing more on better forecasting and preparing for future crises. ​
  • Refining Sustainability Frameworks: Another major challenge CFOs are focused on is refining the sustainability reporting framework which is still at subpar levels, lacking standardization across governments and regulatory bodies.​​
  • Emerging Finance Investment Trends: While CFOs continue to drive the digital transformation, they are also aware of emerging trends in finance investments – from AI to customer intelligence.
