About FC Compliance

  • I started FC Compliance to help Aussie businesses make sense of regulatory change that can otherwise feel overwhelming.

    For many small and mid-sized organisations, new Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing (AML/CTF) obligations are unfamiliar and complex. With the right guidance, they don’t need to be.

    Drawing on experience in regulated financial services environments across financial crime prevention and operations, I understand the challenge of translating regulatory obligations into effective day-to-day business operations, with practical experience operating within the UK, EU and Australia.

    My approach is measured and collaborative, supporting businesses to meet their AML/CTF requirements with confidence.
