VP, Principal Data Scientist, Enterprise Risk Analytics @ CIMB
About
I work at the intersection of Enterprise AI, GenAI, Risk Analytics, and Financial Crime Intelligence.Over the past 7+ years, I have built and operationalised AI solutions across banking, consulting, and telecom, from fraud detection models and graph-based mule detection to enterprise RAG assistants and GenAI-powered reporting. At CIMB, I serve as Principal Data Scientist and AI Champion for Risk, helping drive GenAI adoption, AI governance alignment, and enterprise AI use cases across Risk, Compliance, Business, and Technology teams.Some of the work I have led includes: • Network Link Analytics for mule-account and financial crime intelligence, supporting closure actions on ~70% of flagged suspicious accounts • CrediNote, a GenAI-assisted credit memo drafting solution that reduced first-draft turnaround time from 1–2 days to ~30 minutes • CrediSense, an enterprise RAG-based policy assistant that helps employees search, summarise, and retrieve answers across complex Group Policies and Procedures • Generative BI on Microsoft Fabric and Azure OpenAI, enabling natural-language querying of risk and credit portfolios • ML-based fraud detection for loan origination, reducing false-positive review effort by 75% and saving ~2,940 man-hoursI am also involved in AI governance work covering grounded GenAI controls, guardrails, evaluation metrics, traceability, and human-in-the-loop review.My focus is building AI solutions that are useful, governed, scalable, and measurable in real enterprise environments.
