解説

問 23

Incorrectア
Technology is overseen by the CTO (Chief Technology Officer), not by the CFO.
イ
正解 CFO stands for Chief Financial Officer, the executive position that oversees a company's finance (fundraising, budget management, accounting, investment decisions, and so on). Therefore, what a CFO is responsible for is finance, so イ is correct.
Incorrectウ
Information (IT and information-system strategy) is overseen by the CIO (Chief Information Officer), not by the CFO.
Incorrectエ
Human resources is overseen by the CHRO / CHO (Chief Human Resources Officer), not by the CFO.

ここがポイント

CxO is a general term for the top officer in charge of each area of a company. Learn the correspondence between the abbreviation and its area of responsibility: CFO = finance, CEO = overall management (Chief Executive Officer), CIO = information, CTO = technology, CHRO = human resources.
The 'F' in CFO stands for Financial (finance); it is the position overseeing fundraising, budgeting, and accounting, which is the core point of this question.
