Achim George

Financial Crime Manager at AXA

Speaker

I am currently Financial Crime manager at AXA UK with nearly two decades of experience across leading global financial institutions like AXA, Nordea bank, MUFG Bank, Commerzbank, and Standard Chartered. My career has particular focus in dealing with Sanctions and a journey to expertise in regulatory compliance and sanctions regimes. I have led enterprise-wide risk assessments, advised on cross-border compliance involving high-risk and Sanctioned jurisdictions, and developed tailored policies aligned with international regulatory frameworks (EU, UN, UK, US), navigating the financial, operational, and reputational risks associated with Sanctions exposure.
