Overview

CFOs and finance leaders are reacting to direct, external pressures, namely economic volatility, fickle trade tariffs, sticky inflation, and supply chain disruption. The Strategic CFO 2025 report indicates that almost 70% of these professionals are concerned about meeting end-of-year financial goals due to these external threats and unforeseen disruptions.

Therefore, an important question arises – is it possible for CFOs to use AI and automation as an internal stabilizing force to offset the global market uncertainty and unpredictability?

Overview

No business works without a strong finance function—and the better it works across end-to-end processes aligned throughout front, middle, and back offices—the greater the opportunity for improved performance and growth. That’s why today, finance leaders are turning an increasingly critical eye on their usual ways of working, assessing not only whether the office of finance adequately protects enterprise value but also whether it actively drives value creation.

Join experts from Fannie Mae, KPMG and Workday as we explore a fundamental reshaping of the processes that power the office of the CFO—modernizing the technologies, capabilities, and means of collaboration that can enable accounting, FP&A and procurement alike to be both value protectors as well as strategic value drivers.

You will learn:

  • Best-in-class accounting, finance and procurement practices to generate richer insights and improved decision-making
  • The importance of adopting new technologies and ways of working as the foundation for greater agility, speed and clarity
  • Why collaboration and data sharing are key to driving reporting and analysis to the next level
  • How the finance function is uniquely positioned to drive and accelerate enterprise-wide business value

Overview

Today’s finance leaders are under more pressure than ever before and are tasked to “do more with less”. While their day-to-day is consumed by manual work, finance teams are also somehow responsible for simultaneously cutting costs, increasing efficiency, and driving new growth. So, how are they supposed to do it all?

AI is the answer.

This timely and insightful webinar will focus on generative AI as an invaluable ally to finance teams. It will explore how AI can automate manual tasks, deliver richer outputs from contract reviews to flux analysis, and how AI can free up time to focus on more critical analyses to drive growth.

Attendees will also learn:

  • How to use AI to do more with less, including how to successfully automate manual workloads
  • How automation can free up time for finance leaders to focus on more critical strategies
  • How AI can make traditional finance processes more efficient and effective for long-term growth
