What I'm looking for

I’m looking to transition into Fintech / BFSI Consulting where I can leverage branch operations expertise, KYC/AML frameworks, and customer lifecycle management to drive product growth, operational efficiency, and strict regulatory compliance.

I’m a results-driven Banking & Fintech professional with 11+ years of progressive experience in branch management, retail banking, credit operations, and regulatory compliance. I’ve consistently exceeded CASA and deposit growth targets by 110%+ while maintaining a 100% audit compliance record with zero major observations.

Across my roles at South Indian Bank, I’ve owned end-to-end branch operations—covering retail liabilities, deposits, asset products, fraud monitoring, and operational excellence. I reduce friction through process improvement, including cutting customer service request turnaround time by 20% through targeted changes.

I’m deeply fluent in KYC/AML and regulatory reporting, and I’ve ensured 100% KYC, AML, and regulatory compliance while successfully navigating internal and statutory audits. I also bring hands-on credit and risk exposure, collaborating with credit and risk teams to support portfolio quality, timely renewals, and NPA management.

Now I’m leveraging my domain expertise to transition into Fintech / BFSI Consulting, bringing hands-on knowledge of banking operations, KYC/AML frameworks, and customer lifecycle management. I aim to drive product and business growth in financial services—combining compliance rigor with digital banking initiatives that improve efficiency and customer experience.
