I’m seeking exclusively fully remote international roles where I can manage complex EDD, AML/KYC, financial crime, and cross-border risk cases. I am currently based in Thailand but am not seeking Thailand-based or on-site employment. I’m open to B2B contractor or Employer of Record arrangements.

Risk and operations professional with 12+ years in international banking, KYC/EDD, financial crime, onboarding, and credit risk.
What I'm looking for
I've managed regulated onboarding, ongoing monitoring, and complex client cases at Israel Discount Bank's International Private Banking Center for 100–120 international HNW/UHNW clients representing more than $200M in assets.
I investigate source of wealth and funds, beneficial ownership, adverse information, sanctions-sensitive exposure, and cross-border transaction trails. I produce audit-ready case documentation that separates verified facts, unresolved points, risk factors, client explanations, and escalation rationale.
Previously at Sberbank, I monitored corporate groups within a loan portfolio exceeding $500M, analyzing RAS and IFRS reporting, repayment capacity, covenants, early-warning indicators, and commercial-real-estate risk. I also contributed to recognized process optimization, earned a Six Sigma Green Belt, and mentored new monitoring specialists.
My earlier telecom client and project leadership work built the negotiation, stakeholder coordination, and difficult-client management skills I bring to regulated banking today.
