About Abhishek Kumar

I am a Financial Crime Analyst (FIU) with over 3+ years of combined experience across AML, compliance, and financial crime roles within banking and fintech environments.Currently at Revolut, I handle FIU escalation-level investigations involving transaction monitoring, source of funds (SoF) assessment, and risk-based analysis of customer activity. My work requires conducting end-to-end investigations from scratch, identifying unusual transactional behaviour, and preparing clear, audit-ready investigation narratives.I have worked across multiple jurisdictions, including European countries and Australia, applying jurisdiction-specific regulatory expectations while aligning with global AML standards. My investigations also include assessing crypto-related transactional risk, such as investment activity, sudden withdrawals, and source of funds considerations as part of broader financial crime reviews.Previously, I gained strong foundational experience in AML, KYC, EDD, and transaction monitoring through roles in fintech and banking environments. I am focused on continuous learning and growing into advanced FIU and financial crime compliance roles.
