What must today’s CFO do to move from guarding value to architecting it?
Across global markets, the CFO role has undergone a profound shift – from financial custodian to enterprise strategist. Research indicates that nearly 30% of CEO roles in the West are backfilled by CFOs, reflecting the growing expectation that finance leaders shape growth, strategy and long-term value. In India, however, this figure stands at just 17%, signalling both a gap and a significant opportunity.
In this session, Dr Parthasarathy VS will explore how Indian CFOs can step decisively into higher-aspiring leadership roles by redefining how they create value for the enterprise. Moving beyond control, compliance and reporting, the discussion will unpack the five critical ways CFOs can evolve into true value creators - influencing strategy, capital allocation, organisational performance and the CEO agenda itself.
