This week’s must read
In the corporate finance world, corporate clients think about how banks’ financial instruments can fill liquidity gaps and optimize risk exposures. This article describes each trend and examines its potential impact on corporate finance lifecycle. How quick can digital disruption rattle the corporate finance world? Are you prepared for it?
This Week’s Must Read is an insight piece from Detecon about the impact of digital disruption in Corporate Finance.
Thought Leadership
The COVID-19 pandemic has certainly disrupted the world of corporate finance. The function is facing a reckoning across a wide spectrum of areas. How can companies turn these changes into unique opportunities, and what will be the impact of COVID-19 on the future of corporate finance in Asia?
COVID-19 has made financial planning and performance management even more difficult. Companies’ existing plans will need to be revised due to the rapidly changing global health situation. But how do we plan in this environment when we don’t know what is going to happen?
Budgeting processes are frustrating, especially in these uncertain times: tedious templates, endless financial forecasts, haggling over targets and battling for resources. Beyond the control it provides, are your plans flexible enough to focus on what really creates value?
The Covid-19 crisis is clearly accelerating digitalization. It’s time corporate finance departments take a good look at their internal operations to understand what can be automated and what additional value can be delivered to their organizations.
