Overview: According to an IBM study of more than 1,200 CFOs and senior Finance professionals, very few organizations - in any industry - are prepared or flexible enough today. For the retail industry, shaky consumer confidence intensifies the financial management challenges. The study showed that retailers must address substantial gaps between what they recognize as important and what they are actually doing. To understand and serve their customers better, retailers must improve the level of information integration and manage risk more effectively and above all, become better at turning customer specific data into insights and actions needed across all functions.
