We’re excited to share that our AI in Finance Survey Report 2025, including lots of practical insights for finance leaders, is now ready to download! We set out to understand where AI is truly making an impact in finance, not just in theory, but in everyday decision-making. The results are fascinating. A huge thank you to all the finance leaders who shared their experiences and helped us build a clearer picture of what AI in finance really looks like today. #cfoinsights #financeleadership #AI #AIfinance

Are finance leaders ready for AI? We recently surveyed hundreds of finance leaders to find out. The hype is loud. The potential is undeniable. Yet progress isn’t happening as quickly as the headlines might suggest. Yes, some leaders are actively using AI but most are not. However for the majority of those the real blockers aren’t cost. They aren’t accuracy concerns. They aren’t compliance risk. The biggest challenges? Skills and systems. Finance teams want to move faster, yet many are still working with legacy processes and limited AI capability. Those who tackle skills and systems first will build the momentum others struggle to catch. Curious how your organisation compares? Drop me a message if you’d like me to send you a link to download the report.
