Background

About Dimitris Giannakidis

To begin with, I have a bachelor degree in Economics from Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and also a master's degree in System Engineering and Management from Democritus University of Thrace. I am currently working as a Risk Advisory Senior Consultant at Deloitte in Thessaloniki. Since joining Deloitte, I had been involved in an AML Taskforce. My tasks involved investigating bank accounts and transactions for money laundering activities, performing client analysis profiles, KYC/KYT, as well as training other members and reviewing their work. Moreover, I had performed comprehensive KYC reconciliation for a multinational client, ensuring presence in trade registers, completeness of data, safeguarding the client from financial crime. I had also tested a new risk scoring model while performing KYC and recalculating the clients' risk assessment. Recently, I have performed ABAC reviews on suppliers, customers and resellers for a leading company in local distribution, international trade and logistics of chemicals in emerging markets. I am highly motivated, eager to learn new things and cooperative with colleagues. I adapt and work efficiently in changing circumstances. Additionally, I can achieve personal and group goals and I am trained to work with others with a great sense of solidarity. I am seeing the 'bigger picture' in work, can proactively propose solutions, help out others and have a hands-on approach.
