Audit Committees (ACs) require Chief Financial Officers (CFOs) to remain objective even when perspectives diverge across the C-suite. While that expectation is clear, maintaining objectivity in practice is often complex. Deloitte Southeast Asia's inaugural research on the CFO-AC relationship explores how CFOs can uphold objectivity without disrupting the leadership team, while navigating both the protocols around the CEO and the power distance that can exist with the AC. When narratives diverge, the most effective CFOs anchor their views in evidence. Facts become not only their strongest asset, but also the most credible basis for reconciling competing perspectives. Explore what it takes to get this right in our latest report, The Audit Committee: A North Star for CFOs navigating uncharted waters: https://delo.tt/6049BDL94R #DeloitteSEA #DeloitteSEACFOProgram #GlobalBoardroomProgram #ChiefFinancialOfficers #AuditCommittees
