What a Fractional CFO Usually Provides
Most fractional CFOs give you:
- Financial reporting and dashboards
- Budgeting and forecasting
- Cash flow monitoring
- Board and investor presentations
This can be useful, but it’s often reactive. You learn what happened last month — not how to prevent the same issues from repeating.
The Limits of Traditional Fractional CFOs
Ask yourself:
- Have reports ever told you what you already knew — cash is tight, collections are slow?
- Do dashboards identify problems but stop short of fixing them?
- Has your CFO ever redesigned a process to eliminate waste or errors?
That’s the weakness: traditional CFO services measure problems, but they don’t repair them.
