U.S. financial experts say they are relatively optimistic about the future, but remain cautious in the face of domestic uncertainties such as congressional inaction on tax reform, according to Grant Thornton LLP's survey of chief financial officers. Grant Thornton says the survey reflects insights from more than 900 CFOs and other senior financial executives across the country. The survey reports 55 percent of CFOs say uncertainty in the U.S. economy is a major concern that could impact their businesses' growth in the next 12 months. This is despite the fact that most CFOs say they expect the overall U.S. economy to remain the same or improve over the next year, suggesting other factors are a barrier to growth, Grant Thornton surmises.
