Therefore, the chief financial officer must be determined by the owner or owner of the enterprise.

The chief financial officer should not only supervise the legality, authenticity and effectiveness of the financial activities of enterprises, but also deal with the accounting of enterprises. Compliance Supervision is carried out in terms of sex, authenticity, comparability and consistency, because the financial results of accounting are obviously closely related to the interests of the owners.

Therefore, in general sense, the chief financial officer refers to the senior management who is determined by the owners or representatives of all owners, manifests the owners' will, and is fully responsible for the overall supervision and management of the financial and accounting activities of enterprises.
