How Steven is building a better working world

“Having a fully effective anti-money laundering program is not only a regulatory requirement, but also a moral imperative as we look to intervene on the activities of criminals, terrorist financiers, drug traffickers and other bad actors.

I’ve always worked to not only bring the most informed point of view to my clients on these critical topics, but to also embrace an entrepreneurial approach – to bring new ways of solving complex issues, innovation in solutions, and strategic thinking to anticipate the next industry challenge. Financial crime remains a topic that requires leading thinking, and while my perspectives help our clients, they also are critical to identify and protect against criminal activities.”
