How do companies like PayPal, Intuit, and Square create enormous value, and what can incumbent firms learn from them?<\/p>\n<p>Digital natives know the power of leveraging data network effects to create \u201chockey stick\u201d growth and encourage aggressive value realization. Tesla, for example, produces an enormous amount of data that, with the power of AI, makes other vehicles on the network more intelligent. More specifically, what separates those who can capture value from those who cannot is the ability to scale and maximize the learning effect of the network.<\/p>\n<p>To do that requires organizations to build a robust digital platform capability, so innovations can quickly move from the \u201cforever MVP\u201d state to a production solution. Modernized data platforms and industrialized analytics environments are the principal components of a mature data and analytics capability.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/info.wavicledata.com\/financial-services-executive-survey-report\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229\" src=\"https:\/\/beta74.thewebsitepreview.com\/wavicle\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/BFSI-Survey-Blog-Insert-1024x427-1.png\" alt=\"2023 financial executive survey report\" width=\"1024\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beta74.thewebsitepreview.com\/wavicle\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/BFSI-Survey-Blog-Insert-1024x427-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/beta74.thewebsitepreview.com\/wavicle\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/BFSI-Survey-Blog-Insert-1024x427-1-300x125.png 300w, https:\/\/beta74.thewebsitepreview.com\/wavicle\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/BFSI-Survey-Blog-Insert-1024x427-1-768x320.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h4>The CFO\u2019s role in data value creation and recognition<\/h4>\n<p>While this insight is intuitive, it is also one of the key learnings in our survey: to capture value from their digital transformation efforts, companies need to articulate and quantify that value.<\/p>\n<p>However, as our participants shared, defining and tracking value is an issue for many CFOs.
