Background

About Basudev Chatterjee

Currently working as a Specialist in the Financial Crime Surveillance Operations (FCSO) division at Standard Chartered Bank, I focus on safeguarding the financial system by identifying and mitigating sanction risks in real-time. My role involves screening all incoming and outgoing cross-border transactions—including CHIP and FEDWIRE—for potential links to sanctioned entities, individuals, and high-risk geographies. Leveraging advanced monitoring systems, I review and investigate risk alerts to ensure compliance with international sanctions regimes, contributing directly to the integrity and security of global financial flows. Previously, I served as an AML Associate at Tata Consultancy Services, where I handled high volumes of case investigations, performing KYC/CDD reviews and transaction monitoring for a leading global bank. This experience laid the foundation for my strong analytical skills and deep understanding of regulatory frameworks governing financial crime. With a solid academic background—holding an MBA in Finance from Jain University—and certifications in Microsoft Office, Power BI, and Alteryx, I bring a blend of financial insight and technical agility to the fight against financial crime. My career is driven by a commitment to operational excellence, regulatory compliance, and the proactive detection of illicit financial activity.
