Mr Ramakrishnan.S, Partner in Bangalore recently represented CFO Bridge at the Almus Rupee Money Conference in Mumbai on December 10, 2022 and spoke about the role of automation in finance andtreasury. He said the use of Robotic Process Automation in the areas of finance and treasury is going to change the way the entire function is going to be run. In this day and age of difficulty faced by Organizations in finding good resources and retaining them, RPA will eliminate the need for human intervention in most of the repetitive tasks. In the areas of treasury, it could be used in hedging decisions, working capital management, bank reconciliations, GST recons and beyond. In the areas of finance, it could be used in MIS and other key management reports for effective decision making. The advantage of RPA is that it is ERP agnoustic and available at very affordable pricing on a SAAS model. Moreover, the accuracy and timeliness of reporting goes up multifold reducing the dependency on human intervention as most reports can be programmed to be delivered as per pre-fixed schedules too. This was well received and quite a bit of interest has sparked in this area post the conference. CFO Bridge will be focussing on developing this area further and working with high end technical partners to make this a reality for our existing and prospective customers.
