But practical advice is understand the principles why u r doing certain things and not do for the sake of doing, if u r interacting with aml folks show your good work and develop your reputation and network which makes u a candidate for internal mobility if positions open. Probably for Internal transfer that’s the way to do it. Also consider taking a scams to show u r serious about aml |
Hi, I am a fresh graduate and I would like to know more about the Compliance industry.
Here are some questions: 1) What does a Compliance Analyst actually do? 2) What are the industry jargons/terms often used? 3) Do the banks usually pay for professional examinations? |

Second - Many, just read the Notice and its related. Third - There are many who graduated from ICA (not immigration hor) and have failed to secure a job. Mind you, they went the extra mile to do either a 5 days course approx 1.2k or a 13k diploma. |
career aspirations
aml/kyc fellows, what are your career aspirations?
i was recently asked this question, and i realised i havent fully thought this through. become a team lead, mlro, local / regional head? does it stop there? i am now trying to build up experience in various areas of FCC. i started off in very specialised areas and now looking to do more generalised roles, hopefully to synergise all these into a role and become master of all trades (if that's even possible). i actually have no idea where this will lead me, especially when large banks divide their fcc depts into very specialised teams. or should one just stay specialised? |

1) It is MAS 626. There are also other publications that important such as ABS guideline on AML. 2) Read, interpret and convey to business units and other stakeholders. 3) ACAMS or Diploma in ICA is usual route. However, having the relevant experience is more important than anything. |
2 cents
Having chance upon this thread, I find its quite interesting but nonetheless thought I would post to just join in the fun.
Compliance space is a very interesting area, neither front (though we meet prospects/clients as part of the DD process), middle (since we are between the sales and ops) nor back office since we do not just plainly process sheets of papers. Yet, amongst the none front office persons, we are easily one of the highest paid. When I turn 30 (seemingly an age a lot of you reference here), I was drawing around $10k fixed with variable depending on company and individual performance and by mid 30s, I was banking around $15k as a head of company for a mid size outfit with my own team. Life was different in each part of my career, from flying 50% of my time, not seeing gf enough till partying on weekends so much to make up for the loss of time on weekdays. All in all, it depends on what you want to achieve, career vs family or if you seek balance in both. Good luck to all intending to join, remember, it job pays well but be expected to be driven. I have my fair share of asking those who do not make the cut to change career but have also given reference to others who are good and are now themselves Heads/Chief Compliance Officers. |
Bonuses for compliance executive
Hi!
I just started out in a compliance role in a local brokerage firm. I’m just wondering what’s the industry standard for bonuses ? I was previously a contractor KYC in a foreign bank for about a year and half. |
