Reena Kumari

Senior Compliance Manager, Chief Compliance Office

Birmingham, UK

I offer advice and guidance to colleagues within Commercial Banking on all aspects of Financial Crime Risk including anti-money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions, anti-bribery and corruption. In addition, I provide answers to general queries from the front line in relation to any specific investigations conducted on a customer’s account.

Everyone I’ve met, regardless of their position, is down-to-earth, approachable and genuinely passionate about their role. I find that the heads of departments take the time to get to know you and express interest in who you are as an individual.

The most rewarding part of my job is working together with my team to help combat financial crime for the bank. It is very important for me to work in an environment where I am genuinely happy and where I feel challenged. I believe my role fulfils both of these desires.
