    Finance transformation revolutionizes the function’s data and decision making

    To become digitally agile and sustainably flexible, finance transformation leaders’ top priority is driving organizational change at scale, which means the path forward is autonomous finance.

    An autonomous finance function isn’t just automated; it’s capable of delivering augmented real-time and predictive insights, effortless compliance and greater flexibility in financial strategy. But it relies on self-learning software agents, and finance leaders need a robust technology roadmap and a new mindset to effect this transformation.

    Finance transformation leaders must build a functional strategy and operating model in line with finance’s digital future to take advantage of increased automation and more advanced analytics. Gartner’s trusted research, expert advice and robust benchmarks help corporate finance teams grow the business as volatility, digital acceleration, and rapidly evolving technology and outsourcing markets reshape finance’s opportunities for unique value creation.
