Every organization or any company needs a manager to manage all the things, but to manage everything is not possible by one person. For every company, there is a need for managers for human resources, information, security, finance and etc. Every department is crucial to the company. Mainly the finance department is the pillar to all. To manage the company finance and analyze the company status, it is to be done by a CFO (Chief Finance Officer). CFO is an officer of a company that has primary responsibility for managing the company's finances, including financial planning, management of financial risks, record-keeping, and financial reporting. In some sectors, the CFO is also responsible for analysis of data. The CFO's duties include tracking cash flow and financial planning as well as analyzing the company's financial strengths and weaknesses and proposing corrective actions. The chief financial officer of a company is the top-level financial controller, handling everything relating to cash flow and financial planning. In the financial industry, a CFO is a highest-ranking position, and in other industries, it is usually the third-highest position in a company. The CFO assists the CEO (chief operating officer) with forecasting, cost-benefit analysis, and obtaining funding for various initiatives. Often, a CFO can become a CEO, or president of a company.
