Rise of the virtual CFO

A true virtual CFO business provides a level of service equivalent to that provided by a CFO/financial controller who is a part of the client’s team, Colin Wright, president and a founding member of the Virtual CFO Association, says. “This means being a part of the team. It is not just about providing forecasts, reports and analyses. It is about helping the business to focus on successful strategies and managing performance through accountability.”

Key Signs to look out for Virtual CFO

A small-to-medium business might not be ready for a permanent CFO just yet: a small business will struggle to justify the expense. But don’t ever think you’re too small to manage your finances properly.

If you’re running a business, it is the time to look out for a virtual CFO when you:

  • need better insights to make better decisions
  • are struggling to budget and forecast appropriately
  • are growing but your processes aren’t
  • are spending but you don’t know how you’re spending
