AI is changing treasury fast, but technology alone won’t create a stronger function.

In this episode, with Antonios Reizopoulos, Head of Treasury at Nomios Group, we explore how treasury leaders can combine AI with people, process, governance and human judgment to improve fraud prevention, decision-making and resilience - while building teams that are ready for the future.

This week, Mike Richards is joined by Antonios Reizopoulos, Head of Treasury at Nomios Group, a leading European cybersecurity and networking company operating across seven countries.

Antonios is currently responsible for building and developing Nomios’ treasury function, with a focus on creating a more centralised, scalable and controlled operating model across areas including liquidity management, cash forecasting, banking, FX, credit facilities and treasury technology.

Antonios shares his perspective on what it takes to build a modern treasury function from the ground up and why treasury needs to be viewed as a core business partner rather than an isolated finance function.

He discusses the importance of gaining broad treasury experience, building effective teams, managing multiple priorities and securing stakeholder buy-in during transformation projects.

The conversation also explores the growing impact of AI on treasury, particularly in fraud prevention, monitoring and forecasting. Antonios explains why AI should support treasury professionals rather than replace them, and why the strongest treasury functions will combine technology with robust processes, governance and human judgment.

What we discuss:

Why treasury should be viewed as a core partner to the wider business.
Building a centralised and scalable treasury function from the ground up.
Why understanding the full treasury operating model is more valuable than working in individual silos.
How liquidity, cash forecasting, receivables and working capital connect in a fast-moving treasury environment.
What Antonios looks for when recruiting treasury professionals, including integrity, curiosity and problem-solving ability.
How AI can support fraud detection, anomaly identification, forecasting and decision-making.
Why effective fraud prevention requires people, process, technology and governance working together.
The importance of stakeholder communication and buy-in when delivering treasury transformation.
