Course Background:

At present, a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation is developing in depth, and digital transformation has become the trend of the times. The "Outline of the 14th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development of the People's Republic of China and the Long-Range Objectives Through the Year 2035" proposes to accelerate digital development, build a digital economy, a digital society, and a digital society, create a good digital ecology, and build a digital China. **The "14th Five-Year Plan for the Development of the Digital Economy" issued by the People's Republic of China puts forward specific measures to continuously strengthen, optimize and expand China's digital economy. The digital age has put forward inevitable requirements for the digital transformation of accounting. Accelerating the digital transformation of accounting is, on the one hand, an inevitable choice to implement the national informatization development strategy, promote the deep integration of the digital economy and the real economy, and build a digital ChinaOn the other hand, it is of great significance to promote the expansion of accounting functions and improve the level of accounting work and accounting informatization in China.

Finance is an important aspect to measure the operating results of all enterprises, and financial digitalization has always been regarded as an important breakthrough in the digital transformation of enterprises. Therefore, finance is no longer limited to simple algorithms such as accounting subjects + double-entry accounting, but based on enterprise management and social and economic operation, mining, gathering and analyzing business-related data, helping enterprises to gain insight and build a new decision-making mechanism based on data + algorithms to achieve more efficient, scientific, accurate and timely decision-making. Therefore, digital finance is the fusion of data, rules, algorithms and computing power, and is the future of finance.
