      The future of finance in Canada


      The finance landscape in Canada is facing disruption and uncertainty, which are elevating the role of the finance function to strategic advisor. Canadian CFOs are now tasked with understanding how to create, integrate, and realize enterprise value to deliver sustainable growth. They also need to understand how their organization can embrace new ways of working and prioritize talent, particularly at a time when Canada is facing a skills shortage.

      By staying in front of disruption and unlocking enterprise value, organizations can turn risk into opportunity. Find out how KPMG’s five pillars of foundational competencies can help your finance organization become future-ready.


      Many organizations are embracing technology, such as cloud, automation and AI. But what CFOs need to understand is the business challenge that’s driving the need for transformation in the first place—rather than letting technology drive the transformation.

      The future of finance is now


      Adapt to thrive. Finance cannot afford to spend valuable time focusing on transactions, processing, and reporting. Today, regulators, boards, commercial functions and external stakeholders expect finance to be a true business partner. Why? Because finance is in a unique position to provide the insights needed to drive real-time decision making and elevate business performance.
