The finance function is at a tipping point. Once viewed as the team that closes the books and reports past performance, finance is now expected to be an insight-driven partner to the business. But most finance teams aren’t built for that. Yet.

With shifting regulations, ESG pressures, data overload, and a talent shortage, traditional finance models are cracking. Meanwhile, fragmented IT systems and manual processes are still dominating core workflows. So, it’s no surprise many teams are stuck fighting fires instead of shaping strategy.

The good news? Transformation is within reach. But it starts with a shift in mindset. Leading financial institutions are already redefining their finance functions. They’re using AI and automation to reduce manual work by up to 80%. They’re building integrated data foundations that combine financial and non-financial metrics. And they’re investing in talent that blends commercial acumen with digital fluency.

Banks are facing not just a tech upgrade, but a cultural shift. One where finance professionals move from compliance-focused scorekeepers to proactive business strategists.

The future of finance is about being smarter, bolder, and ready to lead from the front. Discover how finance functions can lead this transformation in our latest whitepaper.
