ACCA Finance Shared Services and Outsourcing Summit 2013 featured expert insights and case studies

The incorporation of shared services, outsourcing and increasingly global business service models, have led to new questions arising on how delivery centres can best support the value creation agenda. This is particularly true for global finance functions as they seek to become even more efficient and effective partners to the organisation in their ‘go for growth’ strategies. The ACCA Finance Shared Services and Outsourcing Summit 2013 organised by ACCA Malaysia and held at Intercontinental Kuala Lumpur recently featured expert insights and case studies on changes affecting finance shared services and outsourcing delivery, and the impending challenges to be expected by finance professionals. The event was well attended and saw the participation of a large number of finance professionals from South and South East Asia. A delegation from Sri Lanka comprising Infomate Ltd.
