Automation in risk management helps CFOs and finance leaders modernize many aspects of finance operations to improve cash flow, boost efficiency, and promote enterprise growth. As leaders are under pressure to get dispersed finance teams working with better speed, coordination, and accuracy, automation helps to achieve a higher level of preparedness that will sustain their companies through disruptive events — now and in the future.

CFOs and finance leaders are increasingly implementing digital technologies and automation. They see value in ongoing digital transformation and investment in better tools to help them reduce time spent on manual finance processes.

I’m feeling nearly giddy about the near possibilities of seeing credit peers in person! The last year taught us so many life lessons, some of which we wish we didn’t have to experience (on reflection), and many more we’ll carry with us in newly developed lifestyles and professional ambitions.

I have to tell you, NACMCS staff have completely mastered this new virtual interaction that has developed into a heightened expectation. And while it is certainly secondary to in-person meetings, our use of the virtual platforms for industry groups, live demos, member and in-house meetings, educational sessions, accredited classes, and even our annual association member meeting have all become virtual offerings in the past year.… Read the rest
