Guest: Lim Fen Nee, Council Member, ACCA Malaysia
We're told AI will transform accounting, automating tedious tasks and freeing up professionals for more strategic work. But how much of this is reality, and how much is hype? While 58% of finance professionals globally are using AI, only 13% have fully embedded it into their operations.
Lim Fen Nee, a Council Member of ACCA Malaysia, joins us to provide a reality check on the state of AI adoption in the profession. She explains how the accountant's role is evolving from a processor of information to an interpreter and "steward of trust," exercising professional judgment over AI-generated outcomes.
We discuss:
The real state of AI adoption in accounting, in Malaysia and globally.
How the role of the accountant is shifting from processing to strategic oversight.
Why organizations, not AI, are ultimately accountable for financial errors.
The essential new skills accountants must develop, including AI and data literacy.
How to prepare finance teams for a future of human-AI collaboration.
For finance leaders and accounting professionals, this is an essential insight into the skills and strategies needed to thrive in the age of AI.
