Background

About Abhinav Goel

How can a Chartered Accountant help global banks not only stay compliant but also become more efficient?" For over 11 years, I’ve been answering that question—working at the intersection of internal audit, operational risk, regulatory reporting, and financial assurance across global banking institutions and Big Four consulting. From managing Basel RWA, and COREP compliance to leading automation initiatives that save thousands of work hours annually, I specialize in creating control environments that are not only compliant but also streamlined and future-ready. Highlights of my journey: Deloitte – Led risk taxonomy assessments, regulatory MRAs, and compliance control testing for top-tier US banks. UBS – Delivered group-level regulatory capital and RWA reports, implemented automation tools saving 4 FTEs annually. HSBC, Nomura, HCL – Migrated and optimized key regulatory reporting functions across regions while ensuring zero compliance breaches. I thrive on stakeholder engagement, cross-border collaboration, and translating complex regulations into actionable, efficient processes. Certified in ESG & Sustainability Principles, I also bring an understanding of how emerging regulations intersect with sustainable business practices. My aspiration? To continue enabling global financial institutions to meet evolving regulatory demands while driving operational excellence—because compliance should be a competitive advantage, not just a checkbox.
