What I'm looking for

I’m looking to strengthen KYC/AML compliance work—owning CDD/EDD investigations, risk assessments, and transaction monitoring—while partnering with stakeholders to improve onboarding speed and accuracy.

I handle KYC compliance for SMEs and diverse client portfolios, running Customer Due Diligence (CDD) and Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) to mitigate financial crime risks and meet regulatory expectations.

At Infosys in Hyderabad, I resolved Transaction Processing KYC tickets, reviewed transaction content for accuracy, and refined procedures to minimize discrepancies through quality assurance.

Since joining Cognizant Solutions in Bangalore, I’ve verified KYC documentation (entity structures, directors, shareholders, and UBOs), calculated shareholding percentages, checked ownership against Sanctions and PEP, and mentored newly hired KYC Analysts while improving operational efficiency by streamlining KYC processes.
