AI is moving quickly into core Record-to-Report activities, from reconciliations and intercompany to close orchestration and reporting. But many control frameworks still rely on assumptions that are becoming less reliable: that people can spot fake information, documents are trustworthy, approvals prove authenticity and anomalies are easy to detect.
In this webinar, Trintech and The Hackett Group explore how AI changes the R2R risk profile, and what finance, controllership, compliance and audit teams can do now to respond. The session moves beyond the hype to examine practical control implications, emerging governance challenges and the steps organizations can take to build a faster, more trusted close.
What You’ll Learn
- Why AI-generated content, synthetic documentation and impersonated approvals can create a false sense of control.
- How familiar reconciliation, signoff and aging controls can become hidden points of failure.
- Why periodic, sample-based controls may miss distributed or continuously refreshed manipulation.
- How AI agents and “shadow agents” introduce new data, security, model and compliance risks.
- How to design compliance into R2R processes so trust, evidence and auditability are built into the close.
- Where technology can help improve visibility, strengthen governance and support a more defensible close.
