@myroslavyatkevych
I’m an AML & Financial Crime SME, delivering investigations and compliance risk remediation.
SlovakiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m an AML and Financial Crime Specialist with 7+ years of progressive in-house experience at ING Bank (via Hubs Slovakia), advancing from Alert Handler through Case Investigator and Senior Remediation Analyst to AML Subject Matter Expert. ACAMS-certified across AML, Transaction Monitoring, and Sanctions, I bring hands-on depth in complex investigations across ML, terrorist financing, and tax evasion indicators.
I lead transaction monitoring and KYC-driven investigations with strong case documentation discipline, covering KYC, CDD, and EDD while applying risk-based thinking to every decision. I’ve also contributed to regulatory gap analysis and remediation, including gap identification, gap assessment, residual risk analysis, and final report-outs that support risk-treatment decisions.
As an AML Subject Matter Expert, I operate as a strategic bridge between global policy and local execution—translating regulatory change into operational procedures that remain audit-ready. I represent the region in ING’s Global Expert Group, advise senior stakeholders and the MLRO on high-risk remediation and escalations, and design QC frameworks that protect portfolio completeness, consistency, and traceability for audits.
I’m also hands-on with investigation tooling and continuous improvement: I built a Python-based investigation tool with external API connectivity to streamline workflows, and I’ve worked with automation approaches like Copilot Studio (agent creation & deployment) plus prompt engineering using Gemini, Claude, and ChatGPT. Earlier in my career, I gained foundational risk and documentation discipline through EY audit work and developed data analysis fundamentals at Quest Marketing.
