Finance & Controlling in Transition: Current Trends and Future-Oriented Developments

Finance and controlling are facing fundamental changes that are characterized by digitalization, data-based decision-making and increasing requirements for transparency and sustainability. New technologies such as artificial intelligence and automation open up enormous potential to optimize financial processes and support well-founded strategic decisions. This introduction sheds light on current trends and shows how the role of finance and controlling in companies is changing to meet the growing challenges.


Digitalization and AI in Finance

Automation and AI are revolutionizing controlling and financial planning. CFOs use modern technologies to make processes more efficient and make data-driven decisions in real time.

Sustainability Reporting (ESG)

Sustainability is becoming a mandatory task in finance. CFOs must transparently document environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors and integrate them into their financial strategy.

Strategic Controlling Management

In times of digital transformation and data-based decision-making, controlling is increasingly becoming a key strategic function. It supports the management in achieving corporate goals and using financial resources efficiently.

Dynamic risk management

Global uncertainties such as supply chain crises and geopolitical tensions require flexible risk strategies. CFOs need to proactively identify risks and develop scenarios for quick decisions.

New forms of cooperation

Hybrid working models and interdisciplinary teams characterize the finance department. CFOs promote exchange between departments and rely on digital tools to strengthen collaboration and innovation.
