@alexandermorris

I lead enterprise transformation, financial crime risk, and operational remediation programs.

United States
Message

At Morgan Stanley, I lead cross-functional financial crime, risk, and remediation initiatives across Advisory, Operations, Policy, AML, and frontline teams. I redesigned a remediation workflow that reduced certain issue-resolution cycles from one week to minutes or hours, and I own approval decisions for relationships representing more than $7B in AUM.

I build practical operating standards in high-priority, risk-sensitive environments. I established precious-metals approval procedures, lead a 10-person SME team, develop KPIs and SOPs, and frame complex issues and decision rationales for senior stakeholders.

Previously, I managed complex legal and regulatory matters at Hayman-Woodward with a 100% approval rate, and held full multi-location retail operating responsibility at GNC. At CNPC, I supported regulatory execution for the $4.4B Block 58 natural-gas development program and administered legal and project spend tied to major oil-and-gas operations and arbitration.

My background combines program governance, regulatory strategy, commercial operations, budget management, workflow redesign, and cross-functional execution across highly regulated industries.
