How are CFOs measuring the return on their AI investments?

Question

Accepted Answer

CFO Live 2026 surfaced no single hard number on AI returns – and that absence is itself the signal: most finance leaders are still struggling to define what ROI from AI even means, let alone measure it. The executives who stood out were those treating AI investment as a multi-year capability build rather than a near-term cost-cutting tool. If your team cannot yet articulate a clear measurement framework for AI spending, closing that gap is the work that needs to happen now.
