The opportunity

It is becoming increasingly important for organizations to critically think about improving their strategy and performance in a rapidly changing, digital and innovative world. We advise CFOs of mainly multinationals, but also mid-market or start-ups, on the future of their Finance function and support them during large transformation programs. For example, in their journey of becoming ever more data-driven, we help our clients accelerate by exploring opportunities that emerging technologies such as GenAI and ML bring to the Finance and Finance Analytics space. Next to that, think about advising CFOs on optimal steering information, improving clients’ financial planning and analysis capabilities, realizing a new organizational model, or implementing improved Finance processes and technologies. Also, projects focusing on sustainable Finance and long-term value get more and more attention. In short, we advise on a broad range of topics that are sky high on the CFO agenda and that our Finance team is passionate about.
