About Georgios
I’m a Netherlands-based independent compliance consultant specializing in KYC, CDD, AML, CTF, Fraud and broader Financial Economic Crime (FEC) oversight.
I support financial institutions (banks, asset managers, trust offices, crypto-currencies and fintechs) across the EU by providing specialist expertise, scalable solutions, and practical frameworks that balance regulatory compliance with operational efficiency.
My experience covers the full client lifecycle — from onboarding and periodic reviews to QA, remediation, compliance function and strategic advisory.
I help organizations maintain compliance, enhance operational quality, and mitigate risks effectively, in line with Dutch Wwft/Wtt, EU AMLD, and upcoming AMLR standards.
Primarily working remotely across the EU, with flexibility for occasional on-site meetings when required.
