Philip Stephenson

I am a results-driven professional with extensive expertise in Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Customer Due Diligence (CDD), and Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) practices within the financial services sector. My proven track record includes implementing compliance frameworks, conducting risk assessments, and leading cross-functional teams to meet regulatory standards. I am certified in Money Laundering (ICA), Compliance in Financial Services, and AMLRO (Lead Training), and I have hands-on experience using advanced compliance tools like Chainalysis and Lexis Nexis.

Throughout my career, I have been committed to streamlining onboarding processes and ensuring adherence to EU AML regulations. At IFH Capital Trader Limited, I managed back-office operations to optimize compliance and reduce operational risks. My role as Underwriting Manager at Trust Payments involved directing underwriting processes aligned with AML and CDD protocols, which minimized financial risks and enhanced compliance adherence. I am dedicated to continuous professional development to stay ahead of evolving compliance landscapes.
