KYC/AML compliance professional at Silk Route Legal, reviewing complex ownership structures and escalating high-risk cases.

India
Message

At Silk Route Legal, I perform KYC, CDD, and EDD reviews for corporate and commercial transactions, including identity verification and ownership checks.

I review multi-layered ownership structures to identify UBOs, assess source-of-funds and source-of-wealth evidence, and screen for PEPs, sanctions, and adverse media. I document AML risk assessments and escalate high-risk cases to the MLRO.

I also guide and train associates on AML processes and client onboarding. My work includes following up on outstanding CDD, maintaining compliance records, and monitoring client fund movements to support audits and monthly reconciliations.

Previously, as a Financial Accountant at VDO Marine Instruments / ATMAIN, I handled ERP bookkeeping, inventory checks, and stock reconciliation. I analyzed purchase and sales data and maintained financial documentation for supply orders to naval vessels.
