@nkechianoka
I investigate financial crime, strengthen AML controls, and deliver audit-ready regulatory reporting.
What I'm looking for
At TD Bank, I review and investigate AML alerts across more than 200 accounts monthly, identifying structuring, high-risk transactions, and unusual customer behavior. My investigations into account takeovers, identity theft, and dispute fraud contributed to a 30% reduction in fraud losses in one quarter.
I prepare Suspicious Activity Reports and clear case documentation while partnering with compliance, operations, business teams, and IT. I streamlined alert reviews from three days to 1.5 days and introduced SAR documentation standards that reduced compliance review findings by 25%.
Previously at Access Bank, I performed KYC and CDD reviews for more than 500 accounts, investigated transaction-monitoring alerts, and escalated over 40 suspicious cases to the Financial Intelligence Unit. I also supported CIP implementation, enhanced due diligence reviews, and stronger fraud-prevention controls.
I bring hands-on experience with financial crime investigations, regulatory documentation, risk escalation, and compliance process improvement. I value accurate, timely analysis that protects customers and strengthens audit readiness.
