Ketan Makhija

I am an AML professional with over 2.5 years of focused experience in transaction monitoring, AML investigations, CDD, EDD, and sanction screening across banking and payments environments. I have handled alerts, performed enhanced due diligence on high-risk customers including PEPs and sanctioned entities, and used advanced intelligence tools to support investigations.

My hands-on experience includes reviewing high-volume transactions, documenting findings, clearing alerts, and contributing to dispute resolution and regulatory compliance efforts. I am proficient with tools and sources such as GAITS, CDR reports, CBAR reports, LexisNexis, and targeted Google searches to verify customer information and gather intelligence.

I bring strong analytical and problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and a proactive mindset to reduce fraud and financial crime risk. I seek roles where I can apply my AML expertise to improve operational controls and advance strategic compliance goals.
