In this episode, Tom is joined by Daniel Ahremark, CFO & COO of Mews, and Hemant Godhwani, VP of Corporate Finance and Treasury at Mews. They discuss the dynamic roles of CFOs, the impact of AI on finance, and the future of the treasury office. Both guests share personal insights into effective leadership, the importance of bold decision-making, and the evolving landscape of financial technology.

Hemant:

“Both of us see treasury as the guardian of the cash of the company. And as you would have heard the adage, cash is king. So when you marry the two, basically you are in a space, which is very, very important to make sure that the organization is functioning well.”

Daniel:

“I think that the career that led to the position of the CFO, historically, was very traditional…I wouldn't be surprised if more and more people that you find in these positions in the future actually comes with a background through engineering or through product, or they found themselves doing a stint in enterprise architecture for a couple of years as well to be able to build out that systematic and system level thinking that becomes so, so vital when you're in an environment where scale really comes through technology.”
