Industry Threats Facing Finance Leaders
What are the top sources of risk facing finance leaders today? In 2018, Dun & Bradstreet commissioned a global risk study of finance leaders to understand their challenges – and we identified top risks that finance leaders are concerned with both internally and externally. Not only is risk becoming more difficult for businesses to manage internally, a number of external threats are facing finance leaders today. In the past few years, geopolitical risk, bankruptcies, technological disruption, NAFTA renegotiations, and the pace of innovation all emerged as risks that are beginning to warrant concern.
Generating insights on risks and opportunities puts finance leaders in a position to succeed when it comes to analyzing, predicting, monitoring, and most importantly, managing risk. Developing an effective risk management strategy begins with building internal cultures around innovation, exploring opportunities for automation, and becoming inspired by the possibilities of data.
