@melvinmeng
I strengthen financial-services audit, risk, controls, and assurance through practical governance transformation.
AustraliaWhat I'm looking for
I currently lead internal audit work for a securities firm in China, developing control frameworks and strategic plans for securities operations. My work spans financial and operational audits, regulatory compliance, resource allocation, and risk-based audit management.
At Deloitte, I advised major banks and fintech clients on GRC, AML/CFT frameworks, quantitative risk model development, sanctions compliance, and operational risk. Earlier, I led compliance policy, risk assessments, transaction-monitoring controls, and sanctions management at Bank of China Macau Branch.
I connect regulation, operations, technology, data, and professional judgment to assess whether controls work in practice and whether evidence supports meaningful action. I've led reviews across CIO governance, cybersecurity, data protection, system development, business continuity, procurement, budgeting, fraud risk, and investment management.
I've designed an AI-enabled audit and assurance workbench covering risk assessment, evidence management, testing, issue analysis, reporting, and knowledge reuse. I'm interested in helping organisations strengthen or transform audit, risk, and control functions through practical, scalable, evidence-driven approaches.
