Modernizing the accounting function has been a top priority for chief accounting officers (CAOs). Today, many believe using generative artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to reshape their roles and expect efficiency gains across their governance, compliance, transformations, transactions, and partnership responsibilities, while also helping to alleviate ongoing talent and skills shortages in their function.

Based on our fifth annual CAO survey of 150 CAOs and 210 C-level executives, functional peers, and direct reports, we found that "CAOs are eager to tap the power of generative AI to enhance their day-to-day activities and demonstrate their readiness to make bigger contributions to the wider organization."
