A recent survey finds that finance leaders at larger companies are starting the new year with renewed optimism.
Almost three-fourths of CFOs think the economy will improve over the next year, according to Deloitte’s fourth quarter 2024 North American CFO Signals survey, up from 19% in the third quarter.
The survey found that 72% of finance leaders are confident about economic conditions, possibly because of the presidential election and a second Federal Reserve interest rate reduction in November, when the poll was conducted.
The survey polled 200 CFOs at companies with more than $1 billion in annual revenue. See more findings.
