EVENT OVERVIEW

The future of finance is all about managing across functions, building the right combination of capabilities, and establishing a strong data foundation. On-going FutureCFO dialogues with finance leaders across the function reveal a continued commitment to driving growth through digital transformation.

However, the maelstrom of non-aligned priorities, talent shortages, legacy processes and too many options when it comes to technologies make the road to growth in 2024 a formidable challenge for even the most seasoned finance professionals.

A Gartner’s research affirms that organisations face a medium-term environment characterised by tepid demand growth, stubbornly high costs and constrained access to capital – referring to the combination as a deadweight economic condition. “Absent fortuitous events such as a surprise end to geopolitical conflict, a swift halt to inflation or the quick realisation of dramatic productivity gains from AI, CFOs should expect many of the underlying economic trends contributing to the deadweight economy to persist across their strategic planning horizon.”

If there is a steady global economy that supports the overall growth path, Malaysia’s economic growth is projected to be at 4%-5% in 2024. With fiscal strengthening and consolidation as the focus of Malaysia’s 2024 budget, the current Malaysia’s government has set the largest budget ever tabled by any government in Malaysia’s history, with a total allocation of RM393.8 billion for this year. The Budget 2024 aims to address the twin challenges of a less robust global economic outlook and Malaysia’s financial constraints.

Malaysia government is also looking into to building an ecosystem and regulatory frameworks that support green and digital economies investments. While the current administration introduces new taxes and targeted subsidies this year, how would these new developments impact finance leaders in Malaysia?

This 2024, the FutureCFO Malaysia Conference will be held in Kuala Lumpur on 26 June 2024, bringing together seasoned finance professionals to uncover:

How to sustain enterprise’s growth engine amidst challenging time
Transformation roadmap for success in the future
Best practices in riding the transformation challenges
Tactics for evaluating digital competencies across the function
How to build realistic and trustworthy forecasts
Strategies to shorten the digital financial close
Top challenges in data, data technology and governance management
AI and smart automation priorities and use cases
People management for stronger, digitally competent teams

The challenges ahead present real and economic tailwinds that can derail ongoing efforts to transform organisations into engines of innovation and growth. For the finance team, there remains clear opportunities to lead by example out of the potential maelstrom that lies ahead to bring about sustained growth in the years ahead.
