1. Siloed use of analytics restricts finance to
understand the organisational drivers
2. Increased capabilities has complicated
analytics responsibilities, particularly
between Finance, IT and Operations
3. Financial analysts have little time to
analyse data as they are consumed with
ad-hoc reporting needs which require
extensive IT skills
4. Users increasing demand of real-time
results across increasingly larger data sets
5. A rapid trend to distribute data across a
wider corporate user base – more data
consumers
