Nancy Weng
@nancyweng
AML/KYC compliance manager improving financial crime prevention through rigorous CDD and SoW analysis.
What I'm looking for
I’m a dedicated AML/KYC professional with over 3 years of experience in Customer Due Diligence (CDD), ongoing due diligence, and regulatory compliance across business banking and retail banking segments, with a focus on Privilege Banking clients.
I build strong, audit-ready case narratives by conducting risk assessments, corroborating Source of Wealth (SoW), reviewing customer profiles, and performing transaction activity reviews to identify gaps, inconsistencies, and potential financial crime risks.
In my current role as “Manager – AMLO” at UOB Bank, I conduct periodic and event-driven KYC file reviews (including STR triggers and client reassessments), validate the adequacy and accuracy of case narratives, and support a KPI of 2 cases per day. I also collaborate closely with stakeholders, including Relationship Managers (RMs) and checkers, to resolve discrepancies and strengthen turnaround time and case quality.
Previously, I supported AML operations and investigations across organizations including Accenture and American Express—handling STR-triggered cases, drafting clear SoW narratives aligned with MAS/FATF and local AML/CFT guidelines, reviewing PEPs/Special Interest Persons using tools like Dow Jones and World-Check, and escalating high-risk findings for enhanced due diligence.
