Protiviti has released the results of our latest Global Finance Trends Survey, which identify the top priorities for CFOs and finance leaders. Our findings illuminate how COVID-19 is affecting finance operations, even while broader finance priorities and trends are largely consistent with prior years — from security and privacy of data to meeting the growing demands of internal customers to leveraging advanced data analytics.

This article highlights four habits that CFOs should ingrain into their jobs, based on the top finance challenges and areas of focus revealed in Protiviti’s 2020 Finance Trends Survey.
