Success Stories

Case Study 1: AML Advisory Placement

Client: Mid-sized regional bank expanding into digital assets

Challenge: Needed a senior AML Advisory professional with deep expertise in both traditional banking and cryptocurrency compliance. The role required someone who could build new product advisory frameworks and strengthen partner management.

Our Approach:

  • Conducted a deep discovery session to understand the bank's digital asset strategy and regulatory obligations
  • Customized the search based on business model, not just job title
  • Identified candidates with cross-sector experience (traditional banking + fintech)
  • Focused on advisory expertise, not just compliance execution

The Placement:

We placed a senior compliance advisor with 15+ years of experience in AML, product compliance, and digital asset frameworks. The candidate had previously led compliance teams at both a top-tier bank and a crypto exchange.

Result: Both clients reduced time-to-hire by 30% and expanded their compliance advisory teams. The placements have been instrumental in helping these banks navigate the complex regulatory landscape of digital assets.

Case Study 2: Digital Assets Compliance Professional

Client: Fintech startup launching a stablecoin and tokenization platform

Challenge: Needed a forward-leaning strategist to advise on digital asset products and ensure compliance with OCC expectations. The role required someone who could design new banking frameworks and navigate uncharted regulatory territory.

Our Approach:

  • Aligned talent search with the client's risk tolerance, product strategy, and regulatory obligations
  • Identified candidates with expertise in digital assets, tokenization, and BaaS models
  • Focused on strategic thinkers, not just rule-followers
  • Ensured cultural fit with the startup's fast-paced, innovative environment

The Placement:

We placed a Chief Product & Crypto Advisory leader with experience designing new banking frameworks for digital assets. The candidate had previously worked at a top-tier bank and a leading crypto exchange.

Result: The client successfully launched their stablecoin platform with full regulatory compliance. The placement has been a key driver of the company's growth and has helped them secure additional funding.
