Agenda Day 1

2:35 PM AI in Finance Debate: Redeploy Talent or Slash Headcount?

As AI becomes embedded across the finance function, CFOs face a fundamental strategic question: is the real value of AI in reducing costs and increasing efficiency, or in redeploying talent to higher-value work?

AI has the potential to automate manual processes, accelerate reporting cycles, and reduce operational costs. At the same time, it can free finance professionals from repetitive tasks, enabling them to focus on strategic analysis, scenario planning, and deeper business partnership. For CFOs, the challenge is determining where AI should drive cost efficiency and where it should unlock new capability and insight.
Join this panel discussion as we debate the purpose of AI within finance and impact on team structures.

Key discussion points include:
  • Efficiency vs. reinvention: Should AI primarily reduce headcount and operational costs, or enable the redeployment of finance talent into more strategic roles?
  • Measuring AI's real impact: How CFOs are assessing productivity gains, process acceleration, and value creation across finance workflows
  • Redesigning the finance workforce: What AI means for roles, skills, and team structures as automation increases
