The expansion of the role of Chief Financial Officers (CFOs) has accelerated in recent years, and now the CFOs are also involved in decisions regarding technology investments, artificial intelligence (AI) governance and long-term value creation, according to the Deloitte Finance Trends 2027: Shaping the Next Era of Enterprise Value study. More than half of the survey participants (54%) are involved in decisions on how to allocate AI and technology investments across the organization, while 48% coordinate initiatives on the trust, accuracy and transparency of AI systems, and another 48% are responsible for overseeing technology investments and controlling the associated costs. More than two-thirds of those who have taken on new responsibilities say that this expansion has taken place in the last three years, the study shows. The top priority identified by study participants for fiscal year 2027 is integrating artificial intelligence and advanced technologies for operations automation (43%), followed by increasing cost efficiency across the organization (34%), optimizing capital allocation and investment decisions (33%), and strengthening the strategic influence of the finance
