Finance Transformation Series

Finance. Re-imagined.

Digital transformation is fuelled by data-driven insight, however 53% of CFOs believe finance decisions are most often a reactive response. With responsibility for the whole enterprise, the CFO is uniquely positioned to steer business with a sound data strategy. In fact 77% are already exploring disruptive technologies to make it happen. And, more than 75% say change MUST be rapid and drastic. This is a pivotable time for CFOs and the finance function and, in the 6th iteration of The CFO Reimagined, Accenture has uncovered that this is the most dramatic shift to the CFO agenda and the role of the finance function that we’ve seen.

This shift is characterised by 3 key themes:

1. Digitising Finance and harnessing the power of data

2. Leading the enterprise through digital transformation

3. Developing future finance talent

Watch this on demand webinar to hear how CFOs and Finance Leaders are transforming their business to tap into the digital opportunity, and delve into WHY these 3 imperatives are crucial and HOW you can harness the power of data to enable business strategy.
