Responsibilities for chief financial officers (CFOs) have been expanding over the past few years, and this trend has accelerated due to the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The role of today’s CFO often includes not only traditional financial and accounting, reporting, and compliance activities but also aspects of risk management, analytics, value creation and growth, and digital transformation.
