Background

About Vivek Barwal

Investigator - Financial Intelligence Unit | Security and Customer Service Leader With a background spanning financial intelligence, security supervision, and customer service, I am a dedicated professional passionate about safeguarding institutions from financial crimes and enhancing operational integrity. Currently, as an Investigator in the Financial Intelligence Unit at Scotiabank, I specialize in analyzing client records and account activities to detect unusual patterns that may indicate risks related to regulatory requirements. My role involves utilizing data analytics to identify anomalies, assess red flags, and investigate high-risk clients, including politically exposed persons (PEPs), all while ensuring compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations and sanction protocols. My previous experience as a Security Supervisor with Paragon Security equipped me with robust leadership skills, overseeing a team of security personnel, coordinating emergency response efforts, and ensuring property safety. This role honed my ability to manage critical situations effectively while maintaining a high standard of security and operational efficiency.
