The Evolving Role of the CFO
The role of the Chief Financial Officer in the 21st century corporation has evolved, from simply leading the financial organization to becoming a key strategist fueling organizational change and technological transformation. Today’s CFO must monitor macroeconomic trends, manage new risk paradigms, optimize operations, and support the CEO and other strategic partners within the C-Suite. As CFOs meet the moment, CNBC has built a program with these unique needs in mind. The CNBC CFO Council delivers timely, valuable insights while helping the modern CFO strengthen relationships with their peers and with CNBC’s world-class business and financial journalists.

Fed Matters
Members of the CNBC CFO Council meet and connect regularly with CNBC journalists, entitling members to hear observations and trends gleaned from their reporting, while building relationships and contributing additional insights. Ahead of every FOMC meeting, Steve Liesman, CNBC Senior Economics Reporter, surveys a panel of top Wall Street economists, money managers and market strategists about their Fed policy predictions. The day before the Fed announces its decision on interest rate policy, Liesman releases the survey results to the public. In this exclusive new event series, members of the CNBC CFO Council will have the opportunity to engage with Liesman and other experts to analyze the findings, discuss the forthcoming Fed Decision and all the factors that might influence policy.
