Finance vs Accounting

What is the difference between finance and accounting? Are finance and accounting different and separate fields, or are there overlaps? Let me provide my Finance Storyteller perspective on finance versus accounting, I look forward to engaging in further discussion with you in the comment section below!

A very generalized view of the difference between finance and accounting is the following: finance is managing the company’s financial resources, accounting is recording and reporting the (financial) transactions of a company. Finance is viewed as forward looking, planning future transactions. Accounting is viewed as backward looking, recording past transactions. This distinction of finance versus accounting sounds good, but might be an oversimplification versus how things work in the real world.
So let me propose (in this video) a more granular and gradual view of finance and accounting, as a continuum.
