El futuro de las finanzas tiene que ver en cómo la función financiera necesita organizarse para dar luz a las empresas que enfrentan cambios constantes debido a la nueva competencia, las nuevas tecnologías y los nuevos modelos de negocios.
New competitors are transforming entire industries within brief periods of time. New services are taking the place of long-established business and market models. Innovative technological developments are displacing entire ranges of products – a trend not restricted to any one industry or sector. As part of this change, the finance functions and CFOs of companies are gaining a huge amount of importance in both strategic and operational terms. They are becoming the main navigators for this emerging transformation. At the same time, operational business is placing ever-higher requirements on the finance function, requiring more accurate forecasting and more consistent information in order to respond appropriately to changes in the market.
Your finance team should be at the heart of your business strategy, driving decisions using insights built from data and a cross-business perspective. Our finance consulting team will work with you to ensure your business is ready to meet the demands of the modern economy. From implementing finance technology to overhauling your operating model, we’ll transform your finance function.
Our Enterprise Performance Management services help you to improve your organisation’s performance in every area of the enterprise. By working with us, you can review past performance, set appropriate targets, integrate business plans, improve internal reporting, and use analytics to predict future outcomes, so that you have the right information on hand to make strategic decisions quickly and confidently.
Our Finance Consulting team works alongside you to re-imagine the future of finance within your organisation. We help you to design a target operating model and to determine what skills and capabilities you need to meet it. We evaluate your current tools and technology, and support you as you implement new tools and processes. And we help you to equip your business partners with everything they need to drive this transformation.
Top-performing organisations reduce their costs through outsourcing or using shared services. At PwC, we help you throughout this entire process: determining which functions to outsource, selecting providers, negotiating contracts, setting up shared services, determining feasibility, selecting locations, and designing the service itself. With our help, you can manage the transition and implementation, and once these relationships are up and running, you can evaluate their performance and ensure their operational excellence.
Digital technology is the biggest trend impacting business in the near term. It will change the role of the finance function - perhaps dramatically - but very few finance functions are ready to transform.
