Meredith Beeston- Financial Crime Compliance Senior Manager - Strategy & Advisory- ClearBank

From a TV show, what can we learn about how organisations launder funds and evade detection, the bureaucracy and corruption that can be faced along the way, and the negative impact the War on Drugs has had on all its participants? Quite a lot, it seems!  Gemma Rogers, Co-Founder, FINTRAIL sits down with Meredith to explore all of this, and more, based on the American crime TV series ‘The Wire’.  Meredith is a Financial Crime Compliance Senior Manager - Strategy & Advisory at ClearBank. Meredith is an experienced financial crime compliance professional who specialises in designing, enhancing and conducting oversight on AML/CTF and sanctions systems and control frameworks. At ClearBank, Meredith works within the 2LOD to provide advisory on the implementation of anti-financial crime controls and to help drive control evolution to support the bank’s strategic initiatives. Prior to her role at ClearBank, Meredith worked at FINTRAIL as an anti-financial crime consultant, where she led and supported on client engagements across the FinTech, virtual asset, banking and investment sectors, helping firms to build, scale and modernise their financial crime risk management programmes.
