About Gbedjinou

With nearly 10 years of cumulative experience in banking and payments, I have developed solid expertise in financial security, AML/CFT (Anti-Money Laundering/Combating the Financing of Terrorism), regulatory compliance, and risk management. CAMS certified, I now support companies as a freelancer to strengthen their financial crime prevention systems in an increasingly demanding regulatory environment.
I am involved in the entire compliance cycle, from client onboarding (KYC, KYB, EDD, UBO analysis) to complex financial investigations and transaction monitoring. My experience allows me to identify emerging risks, analyze atypical operations, and provide appropriate responses to both operational and regulatory challenges. I also perform the MLRO (Reporting Officer) function, including alert assessment, qualification of sensitive cases, and drafting suspicious activity reports for TRACFIN.
I participate in the design, updating, and improvement of AML/CFT policies and procedures, in carrying out internal controls, and in formalizing processes to ensure sustainable compliance with the requirements of supervisory authorities such as the ACPR and AMF. My mastery of regulatory watch allows me to anticipate legislative changes and effectively support teams in interpreting and applying new obligations.
Accustomed to demanding environments, both in banking and fintech, I bring a pragmatic, structured, and results-oriented approach. My goal is to help organizations strengthen their financial security, reduce their operational risks, improve the quality of their controls, and support the skill development of their teams.
Looking forward to discussing further.
