New research from The Hackett Group indicates that more European companies are adopting finance shared services organizations (SSOs). Close to 40 percent of European organizations are investigating and planning to relocate finance SSOs offshore. Of those companies that use finance SSOs and participated in the study, 84 percent saved 10 percent on costs, and half saved more than 20 percent. Quality, productivity, and customer service have improved by 10 percent to 40 percent in those companies that take the SSO approach.
