Accelerating Finance Transformation – Strategies for Resilience and Impact
As the boundaries of the finance function expand, digital acceleration and AI adoption have become central to the CFO agenda. With 84% of finance teams in planning or deployment with AI as of 2025, today’s finance leaders are uniquely positioned to drive cost-efficient growth and build resilient, future-ready teams. However, they must do so while balancing enterprise cost discipline and accelerating strategic investments amid persistent economic headwinds, regulatory shifts, and technological evolution.
The challenge: making every investment count, accelerating transformation with limited technology budgets, and ensuring finance remains the engine of strategic insight and innovation.
