Unifying financial insights in Asia: why CFOs are turning to SAP + OpenText

In today’s fast-moving digital economy, the role of the Chief Financial Officer is no longer limited to financial stewardship—it has expanded into strategic leadership. According to a McKinsey report, 90% of CFOs in Asia-Pacific say they are directly involved in enterprise-wide digital transformation. Yet, despite this shift, many organizations still struggle with disconnected systems, siloed data, and lack of actionable insights—especially across diverse regional operations.

To navigate these challenges, CFOs are turning to enterprise information management (EIM) solutions that bring content and data together in one integrated environment. That’s where SAP and OpenText, implemented by digital consulting experts like VISEO, become mission-critical.

Why information management is a CFO priority

Deloitte’s 2024 Asia CFO Agenda underscores the growing pressure on finance leaders to deliver real-time insights, manage compliance across jurisdictions, and build resilience into their operations. However, only 38% of CFOs say they are satisfied with their current financial reporting and analytics systems.

This dissatisfaction stems from:

  • Fragmented enterprise data across ERP, CRM, and content platforms
  • Regulatory complexity across borders
  • Rising cyber risks and stakeholder demands for transparency

OpenText’s EIM solutions, tightly integrated with SAP S/4HANA Cloud, offer an answer by connecting unstructured and structured data—from invoices and contracts to supply chain documents—into one secure, intelligent platform.

SAP + OpenText: a strategic alliance built for CFOs

With more than 5,000 joint customers and 2 million cloud users in over 120 countries, the SAP and OpenText partnership is a global benchmark for content-enabled ERP. This co-developed integration enables:

  • Seamless support for RISE with SAP and SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud
  • Content and process management embedded directly into SAP transactions
  • Secure and compliant document archiving across finance, HR, and procurement

According to OpenText, organizations leveraging their integrated solutions with SAP have seen up to 30% reduction in process costs and 25% improvement in compliance readiness.

The CFO’s advantage: from data to decisions

For CFOs aiming to lead with insight, integrated information management is no longer optional. With VISEO, SAP, and OpenText, you gain:

  • 360° view of financial data and operational content
  • Better risk and compliance control
  • Enhanced automation and process efficiency
  • Strategic insight to support growth and M&A decisions

When finance leaders can unify their data and content, they gain the visibility and agility needed to steer the enterprise—especially in Asia’s complex, fast-evolving business landscape.
