On January 19, Everest Group hosted a webinar titled, "How is Finance & Accounting Outsourcing Evolving to Support CFOs in Future-Proofing Their Organizations?"

Finance and accounting is not new to business process outsourcing. Not only is it growing at a steady pace, but it is evolving as organizations aim to use it more strategically.

Everest Group speakers Shirley Hung, VP, Michel Janssen, CRO, and Vignesh Kannan, Practice Director, discuss critical trends in Finance & Accounting Outsourcing (FAO), including the role of data and analytics in building business resilience.
