About

AML / KYC Analyst with over 5 years of experience in (CDD & EDD), risk assessment across banking, trade finance, and foreign exchange (FX) environments. In my banking career, I worked within Account Opening & KYC Operations and Foreign Trade Operations, where I supported AML compliance by conducting customer risk profiling, reviewing source of funds, and performing ongoing due diligence. I regularly handled high-risk and complex customer cases, ensuring transactions aligned with the customer’s profile, business activity, and regulatory requirements. Currently, I am working as a Travel Service Partner at Travelex (Birmingham Airport UK), applying AML and KYC controls in a high-volume FX environment. I perform customer identification and verification, assess transaction risk, identify red flags, and escalate suspicious activity where required, while maintaining a strong focus on customer service and regulatory compliance.
