Director and Lead Consultant, Stuart Lennon.
Stuart has worked in financial services since 1988, specialising in anti money laundering since 2005. He’s worked in foreign exchange and money transfer in operations, learning and development and compliance. He has been at the counter, managed teams, trained supervisors, been a MLRO and a Managing Director. His expertise is borne of experience.
As for specific knowledge of anti money laundering and counter terrorist financing regulation in the UK, Stuart is a fellow of the International Compliance Association, with diplomas in anti money laundering and financial crime prevention. His Masters dissertation is on bank de-risking and its impact on the pawnbroking industry. Over the years, Stuart has been supervised by the FCA and HMRC as well as their equivalents in several European jurisdictions.
Stuart’s superpower is taking dense, complex language from the legislation, regulations and guidance and translating it into plain English. Turning the jargon-packed legalese into understandable, actionable polices and procedures. His mission is to help small and medium enterprises integrate excellent compliance practice into their businesses.
If you value straightforward honesty, tried and tested expertise, combined with a sense of humour, then you’ll get along with Stuart.
When not working, Stuart can usually be found walking, on a golf course, on a rural path, or on the Camino de Santiago. He lives in Cyprus with his wife Margaret and a pack of rescue dogs.
