Procurement fraud has evolved on the back of digitally sophisticated tactics from an occasional business headache into a full-blown financial and reputational disaster for organizations worldwide. It’s no longer just a paper problem; the issue is moving from the back office to the boardroom. “We have to change our mindset,” Michael van Keulen, industry principal, procurement, at Coupa, told PYMNTS. “Fraud prevention isn’t just a finance problem or a procurement problem — it’s a business imperative.”
When it comes to managing for uncertainty, chief financial officers are expected to nimbly handle both a sea of change and changing seas. Those skills are being put to the test as the President Donald Trump administration makes trade actions an immediate priority for the first 100 days. The proposed and already-enacted tariff policies have put corporate compliance and financial strategy back in the spotlight. Tariffs introduce complex compliance requirements, particularly for businesses navigating international trade, and the Trump administration’s policy shift comes at a time when global supply chains are still recalibrating from pandemic-related disruptions
Coupa has unveiled more than 100 new features for its spend management platform.

Today’s digital landscape is breaking down traditional silos — especially those around core business risks. Cybersecurity, which was at one point viewed primarily as an IT concern, has leapfrogged to the top of the priority list for chief financial officers (CFOs) and chief information security officers (CISOs). After all, cyber threats are everywhere, and they don’t just target big corporations: they go after partners, suppliers and third-party vendors too. As businesses increasingly rely on third-party vendors, partners, and suppliers to operate efficiently, the need for robust business-to-business (B2B) cyber audits has never been more critical
