About Dave Williams
As a Certified Financial Crimes Specialist (CFCS), I have 5 years of experience in AML/Fraud investigation and Suspicious Activity Reporting (SAR) and over 20 years of experience in the financial services and investments industry. I am an analytical thinker with strong organizational skills and an attention to details. As a high performer, I have been chosen to work high volume and high frequency cases looking for new patterns of AML and fraudulent activity, write processes and procedures, train new team members, and assist management with special projects. My experiences allow me to complete complex tasks quickly with little or no guidance. My abilities to communicate make me able to present complicated information concisely and effectively. I have a history of building strong working relationships with both internal and external business partners.
