Swiss Banking Regulations and Governance have been a part of my professional life for 25 years. I served as founding director, board member, managing director and liquidator of Swiss banks. I can speak about and advice on Forensic investigations, Anti-Money-Laundering (AML), Countering the Financing of Terrorism (CFT), Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption (ABAC), Know Your Customer (KYT), Know Your Transactions (KYT), Target Operating Models for Compliance, Governance in Financial Institutions, a broad range of regulatory topics, Fintech, Regtech, and other related areas.
Together with a small group of experts I also founded a legal commentary on the Swiss AML Act in 2003. The 3rd edition was published in German and English in 2019.
As a former amateur software developer I‘m also excited about the opportunities we have in supporting business with data analytics and I‘m a strong believer in artificial intelligence.
Besides banking I have done a broad range of legal work in various industries including publishing, advertising, industrial products, commodities and IT.
My over 30 years of military service gave me a good understanding of project and crisis management. I’m still serving as a Lead Analyst Officer in the Military Intelligence Services of the Swiss Army.
