“ Financial crime thrives when banks don ’ t know who their customers are ” in London and Sydney . Following those experiences , I moved to Barclays Investment Bank , and then to Barclays Group HQ , to take on various internal audit , risk and compliance leadership roles . I soaked up knowledge like a sponge about different parts of the bank and different types of products and services .
After the financial crisis hit , I needed a change and wanted to do something completely different so seized the opportunity to join a GRC start-up , Exiger . Here , I honed my financial crime regulatory expertise , working with regulators around the world and some of the best innovators in the industry .
I learned so much during this time from brilliant colleagues and clients across the banking and fintech sectors . Exiger grew from its origins as a court-appointed monitor , to become a successful SaaS technology and financial crime consulting company . Then , in October 2023 , the financial crime consulting practice that I led globally was acquired by Capgemini . Today , I ’ m excited to begin this new chapter as part of the Capgemini family , to combine the financial crime regulatory knowledge across my team with the business and tech transformation capabilities at Capgemini to disrupt financial crime compliance , with advisory -led innovation as well as tech-enabled advisory solutions and managed services .
