Financial crime, regulatory change and transformation for private banks, wealth managers and FinTech firms. Engagements run from diagnosis through implementation, testing and evidence.
Led by Michelle M. Markus, fifteen years across private wealth, financial crime and transformation delivery at J.P. Morgan Chase, Morgan Stanley Wealth, Capital One, ANZ Wealth, Mazars, National Australia Bank and Macquarie Group. Work is structured to stand in front of internal audit and the regulator.
A structured view of systems, processes and regulatory obligations, and the points where the operating model is failing. Conversations across product, risk, operations and technology clarify what good needs to look like for both the regulator and the business.
Operating model, roles, controls and reporting designed alongside internal leads. Risks, dependencies and regulatory constraints surfaced early. Governance, metrics and the change plan put in place before the first artefact ships.
Through implementation, user-acceptance testing and cutover, with artefacts, training and evidence packs. Post-launch reinforcement so the solution operates effectively after the engagement closes.
Each engagement was delivered with named institutional sponsors.
Programme leadership for a client-record refresh across high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth segments. Phased rollout designed to maintain front-office continuity, with compliance tracking dashboards giving business heads, risk and audit a single view of progress and exception handling.
Migration from a legacy AML surveillance platform to a contemporary cloud-based system. Parallel-run validation across alert categories, scenario tuning, compliance team training, and a controlled cutover with rollback preserved through the first month of live operation.
Change management for a unified adviser desktop replacing several legacy systems. Targeted training modules for adviser and support segments, a structured adoption plan with regional leads, and post-launch reinforcement to embed the new way of working.
Each is scoped to your institution and handled in confidence.
