To explore the effects of transformation on organisations and their finance functions, we spoke to 678 senior finance and HR professionals (470 senior finance and 208 HR) from 44 countries. Of these, 73% were from private sector organisations and 27% from the public and third sectors (Figure 3).
Almost two-thirds (63%) of our finance respondents were or had recently been involved in finance transformation programmes, with a further 13% planning to be so within the next three years (Figure 4).
Outside the finance function, 6% of respondents had delivered, were delivering or planned to deliver transformation programmes elsewhere in the business. Eighteen percent had no plans to deliver transformation initiatives.
