Forrester research showed that 90% of the finance and IT leaders surveyed reported issues with their month-end close. Risk associated with manual errors, under-supported processes and the time-consuming nature were all identified as being the main obstacles for the financial close.

Finance teams of both, Mid-sized and Large Enterprise organisations face increasing pressure to deliver accurate, trustworthy results in a timely manner – essentially doing more with less. In this roundtable we’ll be discussing the pain points faced by many finance professionals and how best-in-class organisations are utilising technology to transform their close process.

In the session we’ll cover:

• Current challenges associated with manual processes
• How these have been exacerbated through the new normal
• Best-in-class examples of companies utilising technology to improve controls and mitigate risk

In fact, making a compelling case to obtain funding is always a challenge.
