Macroeconomic uncertainty and ongoing disruptions are continuing to drive financial planning and analysis (FP&A) leaders to accelerate technology adoption, according to Gartner, Inc.
“The rate of finance technology investment continues to gather pace,” said Pritika Bhattacharjee, vice president, research in the Gartner Finance practice. “CFOs are telling their FP&A leaders that they need to improve flexibility of budgeting and forecasting, enable faster capital reallocation, and updated financial models to reflect rapidly changing business realities.”
A survey of 400 finance leaders in December 2021 revealed the extent to which finance functions are turning to technologies that have the potential to significantly transform FP&A through 2023 (see Figure 1).
