Ana Paula Azevedo

I am a dedicated Financial Crime Analyst with almost three years of progressive experience in the field. My journey began with a strong foundation in criminology, earning a Master of Science from the University of Porto. I have honed my skills in anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) through my roles at Natixis and Revolut, where I developed a keen eye for detail and a proactive approach to identifying suspicious activities.

At Natixis, I am responsible for ongoing monitoring and conducting due diligence investigations, ensuring compliance with applicable regulations. My expertise includes reviewing and identifying suspicious transactional activities, performing periodic customer reviews, and maintaining an up-to-date knowledge of AML compliance rules. I thrive in high-stress situations, consistently achieving goals on time and under budget while supporting the Head of Financial Crime in delivering an efficient risk framework.

My passion for financial crime prevention drives me to develop and implement effective strategies that adhere to AML and CTF laws. I am committed to providing accurate advice and guidance on regulatory matters, leveraging my proficiency in data analysis and investigative tools to uncover illicit activities. I am eager to continue my professional growth in a dynamic environment that values integrity and innovation.
