@aanuoloyede
I investigate financial crime risk and strengthen AML, KYC, sanctions, and regulatory controls in banking.
What I'm looking for
At United Bank for Africa, I review transaction-monitoring alerts, investigate unusual activity, and escalate suspicious cases in line with AML/CFT requirements.
I conduct KYC, CDD, and enhanced due diligence reviews, assess customer risk profiles, review high-risk relationships, and support sanctions and PEP screening. I also work with business teams to obtain documentation and remediate KYC audit observations.
As a Team Lead in dispute, fraud, and regulatory compliance, I supervised high-volume cases and supported CBN Risk-Based Supervision exercises, audits, regulatory requests, and fraud investigations. My work on the examination contributed to my promotion to Team Lead within one month.
I’ve led regulatory appeal documentation that resulted in withdrawn sanctions and helped improve compliance controls as requirements evolved. Earlier roles in marketing, sales, and customer engagement strengthened my market analysis, customer onboarding, and relationship-management experience.
