About Harshad Shastri

With over 18 years of experience in the IT industry, over 15 of which have been dedicated to delivering customer-focused, business-critical, and regulatory projects in the banking domain, I bring a comprehensive understanding of project and delivery management. At Barclays, I focus on project delivery for client onboarding, credit lending, and regulatory initiatives such as FATCA/CRS compliance, utilizing Agile and SDLC methodologies to meet technical and functional requirements. My expertise includes global regulatory compliance, compliance regulations, and equity trading, supported by my Certified Scrum Master credential. I work closely with cross-functional teams, vendors, and stakeholders to ensure successful project execution, while fostering collaborative environments and maintaining strong client relationships.
