About Swaroop Anand

The three great essentials to achieve anything worthwhile are: Hard work, Stick-to-itiveness, and Common sense.” - Thomas A EdisonOver the past 12+ years, I’ve built my career around uncovering business needs, translating them into actionable strategies, and guiding teams through change — whether in e-commerce, digital banking, financial crime compliance, or large-scale transformation programs.My journey has taken me from shaping e-commerce projects to leading financial crime initiatives with Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA), to driving digital banking and risk change management at Australia and New Zealand Bank (ANZ).I thrive at the intersection of strategy, execution, and people — whether it’s facilitating agile ceremonies, aligning stakeholders, or simplifying complex processes.
