Intercompany: The Next Frontier for Global Business Services

Hello Listners and viewers of Good Morning BSS World podcast. In this episode I welcome Ilona Olszak, Managing Director of Clearsulting Poland, and Tim Nicholls, EMEA President at Clearsulting, for an insightful discussion on one of the most overlooked but increasingly strategic areas of modern finance: Intercompany management. As we can observe - organizations continue to expand globally, finance leaders face growing complexity across legal entities, ERP systems, tax regulations and operating models. Why has Intercompany become a top priority for CFOs? Why do so many organizations still rely on manual processes? And how can Global Business Services (GBS), Shared Services and Global Capability Centers (GCCs) take ownership of this transformation? During our talk my guests explain how standardization, governance, automation and AI are changing the future of Intercompany operations. They also discuss the role of technology beyond ERP systems, the importance of building an Intercompany Center of Excellence, and practical first steps for organizations starting their transformation journey. Whether you are a CFO, Finance Director, GBS leader, Shared Services executive, GCC professional or finance transformation expert, this episode offers valuable insights into improving efficiency, strengthening controls and preparing finance organizations for the AI era.
