What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that offers opportunities for growth and challenges in compliance and financial crime prevention.

I am an experienced enhanced due diligence, anti-money laundering, and compliance associate with over 7 years of experience in financial institutions such as ABSA, RCS, and Capitec Bank. My expertise lies in financial crime investigations and report drafting, complemented by a strong understanding of local legislation and compliance requirements.

Currently, I work as an AML Analyst at Capitec Bank, where I review and analyze leads for potential suspicious activity, manage the investigative process, and support the development of risk-mitigation responses. My previous roles have equipped me with a comprehensive skill set in KYC processes, regulatory compliance, and risk management, allowing me to effectively contribute to the financial security of the institutions I serve.
