@abhayasaha
FinCrime Analyst specializing in AML investigations, KYC/EDD, sanctions screening, and SAR/STR drafting.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven FinCrime Analyst with approximately 2 years of progressive experience in Anti-Money Laundering (AML), transaction monitoring, and financial crime compliance. I currently serve as a FinCrime Analyst at Revolut, where I lead end-to-end investigations in a high-volume, fast-paced global fintech environment.
My work focuses on rigorous CDD, EDD, and PEP account reviews, plus OFAC/sanctions screening, and drafting high-quality Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) and Suspicious Transaction Reports (STRs). Previously at AML RightSource, I executed end-to-end transaction monitoring and AML investigations, triaging alert queues within defined SLAs and escalating high-risk cases to senior compliance officers.
I’m confident applying regulatory frameworks such as the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), USA PATRIOT Act, FinCEN guidelines, FATF recommendations, and EU Anti-Money Laundering Directives (AMLD). I leverage Case Management Systems (CMS), Microsoft Excel, and SQL to maintain audit-ready documentation and spot emerging typologies and behavioral indicators that strengthen financial crime prevention.
