Technological evolution is radically transforming the role of the CFO and the Finance function.

Today, artificial intelligence, robotic automation, big data, and cloud computing are no longer just emerging technologies, but tools already in use within the most competitive companies.

And the numbers speak for themselves:

• 98% of CFOs reported having invested in automation technologies (including artificial intelligence) over the past year, yet many still indicate a low level of digital maturity within finance processes.
• 75% of financial institutions have implemented automation solutions in their core processes, highlighting strong adoption across the sector.
• Process automation can deliver an average ROI of 250% within just 6–9 month
• The AI market in Finance is expected to grow from USD 38 billion to over 190 billion by 203

This rapid evolution calls for new skills and a renewed ability to lead organizational transformation. In this white paper, through up-to-date data, scenario analysis, and first-hand insights from CFOs of leading industrial companies, we will explore:

• The key technologies revolutionizing Finance
• The tangible, measurable benefits for organizations
• The main adoption challenges and how to overcome them
