Salary.sg Forums - AML/Compliance/KYC professionals come in!

To be honest, you are mostly constricted to those roles unless you finish a degree course. No two way about it. However, do take in comfort that there are still companies out there which take in diploma holders that are hardworking and show commitment to pursue their interests in this area.

I have a degree in comms. Not related to biz/bank. Can I get into compliance role? And if not, is there an alternative route?

Hi, can anybody advice if "ICA Cert of professional in governance,risk & compliance" is better or "ACAMS" ? currently i'm a deg holder & have 1 year experience as a "maker". Thinking of getting one of the cert as i'm hoping for better chance to get into other banks as 'checker'.

Hi! I'm a foreigner looking for a job in SG. I have total of 5 yrs experience in KYC, transaction monitoring and fraud management from various banks and fintech companies. With this experience, how much is minimum salary I can ask at par with industry standard? I only earn around SGD1200 with these jobs in my country so I have no idea how much to ask. Thank you!

Hi, just want to ask for advice from seniors here.

Is it wise to take up a role thats covers many parts of compliance(Aml,kyc,regulatory,risk etc)in a very small bank (To learn more stuff)or should I take up an offer doing just one part of compliance in another huge bank(Specialised role)

Fyi, I am only 1.5 years old in the industry.

Will the brand name of the small bank(less than 50 headcount) be bad for the resume?
Is having a specialised role better instead of being a jack of all trades?

Knowledge of tamil is a must as most of our customers do not speak Chinese. Some speak English.

Most banking in Singapore is conducted in English. Chinese and Tamil are used only outside banks.
