Accounts Receivable (AR) is evolving, and fast.
In 2025, AR teams face a new set of challenges: rising interest rates, persistent cash flow uncertainty, and pressure to reduce days sales outstanding (DSO) while maintaining customer satisfaction. At the same time, technologies like AI and automation are no longer just “nice-to-haves”, they're becoming critical tools for AR leaders who want to stay competitive.
Despite this shift, most finance teams admit they’re not fully prepared.
