How Automation and AI Are Transforming Modern Finance Functions

PwC's Chief AI Officer, Scott McLiver, and LOIS examined real-world finance use cases, including lease-heavy environments, where automation and AI are delivering measurable results today, within existing governance, compliance, and audit frameworks.

What was covered:

• How automation and AI can ingest, classify, and interpret financial documents such as lease agreements
• Strategies to improve data quality, consistency, and traceability across finance, accounting, and operational systems, especially in lease-heavy environments
• How AI can detect anomalies, exceptions, and potential risks earlier in the process, rather than waiting for audits or period-end reviews
• Ways to enhance professional judgement with AI-driven insights while maintaining human oversight and accountability
• How automation and AI can reduce manual accounting tasks and strengthen governance, compliance, and audit evidence

This session is designed for:

• CFOs and Financial Controllers
• Finance Managers and Lease Accountants
• Financial Reporting Teams
• Anyone responsible for finance operations in document-intensive or lease-heavy environments
