What I'm looking for

I seek a challenging role in AML compliance where I can leverage my extensive experience to enhance organizational integrity and contribute to effective risk management.

I am a seasoned financier with over 24 years of experience in operations, management, and accounting, with a strong focus on Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance. My expertise spans 12 years in AML, including Customer Due Diligence (CDD), Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD), and sanctions screening across various jurisdictions and organizational types. I have a proven track record of conducting audits using advanced third-party tools to identify sanctions and adverse media related to organizations and individuals.

Throughout my career, I have organized and conducted financial investigations into money laundering and terrorist financing at both national and international levels. My role as a KYC analyst at Integreon involved supporting compliance with AML policies for the FTX crypto exchange, where I analyzed global clients, including individuals and corporations. Additionally, my tenure at the Finance Intelligence Unit of Ukraine allowed me to handle complex international cases, focusing on issues such as tax evasion, offshore accounts, and corruption.
