- Provide an independent analysis from an AFC subject matter expertise perspective to validate the results of Business decisions affecting AFC roadmaps, processes, and new tooling solutions.
- Strengthen reporting oversight and resolve gaps related to operational tasks handled by MLRO teams in close collaboration with operational AFC teams. This includes establishing monitoring metrics such as handling times and volume forecasts, which is critical for timely identification of regulatory risks.
- Provide independent, specialized, and, if required, ad-hoc reports supporting our AFC functions in order to ensure quick reaction to identified risks.
- Assist on internal and external audits, ensuring data evidence is submitted without delay and accelerating our overall audit processes.
- Support the AFC Compliance Controls and Review team on designing sampling methods and creation of dashboards for Second Level controls on internal and external teams.
