Professional Background
Professional experience in regulatory compliance and AML/CFT within CySEC-regulated Cyprus Investment Firms since 2007.
This experience encompasses traditional brokerage and stock-exchange trading, proprietary trading and dealing on own account, derivatives and repurchase agreement transactions, together with CFD brokerage firms operating A-book and B-book business models.
Senior responsibilities have included Compliance and AML Compliance Officer functions, CySEC authorisation and licence-extension processes, regulatory engagement and reporting, compliance monitoring, AML/CFT risk assessments, inspection preparation, internal control reviews, regulatory remediation, and advisory support to Boards and senior management.
The approach is practical and solutions-focused: translating complex regulatory requirements into proportionate, workable and operationally effective solutions, supported by regulatory expertise, sound professional judgement and a strong understanding of financial-services operations.
