December, 20206 The idea of corporate finance dates back to Medieval times when civilizations established in Mesopotamia founded primitive ways to create "business organizations" that catered to single entities of society. Gradually, through antediluvian practices of lending and investment, primordial humans conducted trades and maximized profits/wealth of shareholders. With the vast expansion of technology over the years, the definition of the corporate function is no longer limited to offshoring, outsourcing, and centralization of funds, but goes beyond that! Today's tech-savvy CFOs know every aspect of a business, including its competitors, strengths, and weaknesses, and guide companies/stakeholders through changing terrain. Bidding goodbye to cumbersome manual tasks, the futuristic financial leaders are all set to welcome robust technologies like AI, machine learning, and others into the corporate finance paradigm that streamline tedious work processes that include audits, corporate compliance, and other data-driven reporting. In short, the upcoming corporate solutions will combine a culture of open ideation with human talent and intelligent systems, thereby giving birth to several out-of-the-box finance functions.When all things are considered, there is no doubt that the corporate finance paradigm is on the fast track of evolution.
