This research report, commissioned by Accenture and Oracle in collaboration with Longitude Research, confirms that finance organizations across the board are making clear progress toward adopting the following four tenets to develop new capabilities and transform the role of finance:

•  Modern chief financial officers (CFOs) are technology evangelists recognizing the value of digital technologies and new cloud-delivery mechanisms for standardizing and integrating key processes, reducing cost of ownership, and improving finance productivity and decision making.

•  Acting as a service-oriented, strategic partner to the business.

•  Enabling maximum operational productivity and efficiency.
