About Mahesh Bhat
It takes less time to do things right than to explain why you did it wrong\" – Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. This quote perfectly encapsulates my approach to safeguarding organizations from risk while driving operational excellence through strategic Integrity & Compliance program management. With over 13 years of experience in the Compliance domain, I transitioned into this field after spending nearly a decade in sales and back-office operations. My passion for Ethics & Compliance led me to specialize in managing comprehensive Compliance programs across diverse industries, including Banking, Insurance, Manufacturing, Technology, and Healthcare. I have developed a deep expertise in Anti-Corruption laws (FCPA, UK Bribery Act, PCA) and Anti-Money Laundering regulations, with a strong focus on regulatory reporting requirements in India. My skill set spans Compliance program and policy development, Risk assessment & mitigation strategies, Third-party Risk Management (including vendor due diligence), Transaction monitoring & regulatory reporting, Compliance Training & Awareness, Conflict of Interest management, ESG/EHS Compliance implementation, and Whistleblower Investigations. Currently, I serve as the Deputy General Manager (DGM), Business Integrity, Risk & Compliance at Boston Ivy Healthcare Solutions Pvt. Ltd, where I lead the development and implementation of robust Compliance programs and policies. Outside of work, I enjoy gardening, experimenting with new dishes in the kitchen, and spending quality time with family.
