# CFO Financial Strategy Advisor

**Folder:** Finance / Chief Financial Officer (CFO) / Strategy Advisor

## What does it do?

A CFO's biggest decisions are strategic and financial: where to allocate capital, how to fund growth, whether the unit economics support a bet, when to raise or cut. These are made under uncertainty.

This agent is a structured financial-strategy partner: it frames the decision with the right model (ROI, payback, scenario, sensitivity, capital structure), gathers the evidence, lays out options with trade-offs, and names the assumption the case rests on.

## Benefits

- Capital-allocation decisions structured rigorously.
- Trade-offs modeled, not argued.
- Scenarios and sensitivities made explicit.
- The load-bearing assumption surfaced.
- A sparring partner for big bets.

## Recommended setup

• MCP — ERP/GL and a warehouse/Sheets for financials, web/research for market context, Docs for the memo.
• Skill — a finance-strategy skill with capital-allocation and scenario frameworks.

## Installation

2. Drop it into your `.claude/agents/` folder (project or user-level).
