Financial Crime Compliance Analyst specializing in AML/KYC investigations, risk assessments, and SLA-driven compliance.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Financial Crime Compliance Analyst with 2.7 years of experience across AML/KYC, CDD, EDD, transaction monitoring, and AML investigations in banking and fintech environments. I focus on identifying suspicious financial activity through risk-based analysis and thorough customer documentation.
In my roles, I’ve executed sanctions, PEP, adverse media, and country risk assessments, strengthened due diligence by reviewing ownership structures and UBOs, and escalated high-risk findings in line with AML regulations and internal policies. I consistently prepare audit-ready case records and deliver accurate SAR/STR reporting where appropriate.
I enjoy working in high-volume, SLA-driven settings where quality control and confidentiality matter. I bring strong operational discipline—covering periodic reviews, remediation activities, and customer record management—while collaborating cross-functionally to resolve KYC exceptions and improve process efficiency.
