Signal Three-quarters say their organization needs more resources to capture investment opportunities

Summary

Deloitte reports that three in four surveyed finance leaders believe their organization lacks the resources needed to make the most of investment opportunities. These respondents say they need either a moderate increase or a lot more resources across the business. The finding sits within a discussion of how hard it has become to keep pace and pick the investments that will drive growth and innovation. Finance chiefs are described as balancing two relentless demands, controlling costs while spotting places to invest for growth. Supply chain disruption, local labor shortages and cross-border pressures are cited as forces pushing costs up and unsettling global sourcing. Against that backdrop, the resource gap signals that many organizations feel stretched when trying to fund the opportunities they can see.
