Financial Crime Lead specializing in AML/CFT, FIU, and compliance risk management.
PhilippinesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Financial Crime Lead with deep expertise in Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Counter-Terrorist Financing (CTF), and financial crime risk management. I’ve led Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) operations—strengthening sanctions and PEP screening, transaction monitoring, and fraud investigations to ensure audit-ready compliance.
I drive measurable improvements across compliance systems and investigations. I reduced transaction monitoring false positives by up to 35% through rule tuning, increased suspicious activity detection accuracy by 25% with risk-based monitoring refinements, and improved fraud detection and dispute resolution outcomes by 30%.
I also build and govern the compliance foundation: Travel Rule compliance, customer due diligence (CDD/EDD/ODD), and KYB for institutional clients. I develop risk scoring models, KPI/OKR dashboards, and Business Continuity Plans, aligning execution with FATF recommendations and regulatory expectations while supporting internal and external audits with zero major findings.
