@parkavimuthuswamy
Experienced KYC/AML senior analyst delivering risk-focused compliance solutions.
What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned KYC/AML professional with seven years of hands-on experience in customer risk analysis, name screening, and quality assurance within global financial services. I have executed end-to-end KYC, EDD and screening workflows, escalated true matches to AML/investigations and Global Sanctions teams, and developed QA reporting and metrics to ensure 100% quality adherence.
I have worked across large operations environments performing senior KYC reviews, complex EDD investigations involving SDN/PEP/ADM matches, documentation verification and sanctions screening, and supporting policy development and implementation. I have also performed reconciliation and payments investigation roles earlier in my career, earning awards for performance and process automation contributions.
I bring strong analytical skills, experience with multiple compliance applications and tools, and a collaborative approach to liaising with regional and global business, legal and compliance stakeholders. I am seeking a leadership position in financial crime risk or KYC operations where I can drive process improvements, mentor teams, and strengthen compliance controls.
