About the position

As a Financial Intelligence & Analytics Analyst at Visa, you will play a crucial role in ensuring compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations and other financial crime prevention measures. Your primary responsibility will be to review transaction monitoring alerts to identify potential instances and trends of money laundering, terrorist financing, and other illicit activities. This involves analyzing large volumes of transaction data efficiently to enhance the detection of suspicious activities. You will conduct in-depth investigations and maintain accurate and thorough documentation of your findings. Additionally, you will prepare Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) reports and other analytic reports as necessary, contributing to the overall risk management strategy of the organization. Collaboration is key in this role, as you will work closely with cross-functional teams to address AML concerns and implement effective risk mitigation measures.

This position is hybrid, allowing you to alternate between remote work and office presence, with an expectation of being in the office 50% or more of the time based on business needs.
