Madra Mwendwa

I am a Governance, Risk & Compliance Professional with over a decade of experience in ensuring organizational compliance within the financial services and payment processing sectors. I have successfully spearheaded the development and implementation of AML/CTF programs, KYC, CDD, and EDD processes, which enhanced risk mitigation strategies and reduced compliance violations by 20%. My expertise includes leading regulatory audits, policy enhancements, and transaction monitoring systems, ensuring seamless adherence to CBK, ODPC, and global compliance standards.

Throughout my career, I have managed high-risk client assessments and streamlined due diligence processes, significantly improving operational efficiency. I have directed cross-functional teams to strengthen data protection strategies, ensuring compliance with cybersecurity regulations and minimizing data breaches. I am now looking to leverage my extensive expertise in regulatory compliance, risk management, and remote team leadership in a dynamic financial services organization.
