Her expertise in regulatory compliance, financial crime risk, and systems solution and design, across seven banks, with regimes covering the UK & Europe, US, Asia and Australia, has provided great insights into navigating the upcoming AML/CTF regulation reforms for both existing entities within Tranche 1, as well as new Tranche 2 entities.

Her experience in a major Australian bank as General Manager for delivery of the fin crime risk remediation program, as well as Program / Delivery roles in 2 major global Retail and Investment banks, 2 UK/European banks and 2 Australian banks, most of these being under intense regulatory scrutiny, have provided deep subject matter expertise and implementation know-how in the toughest of environments. 

A seasoned Financial Crime professional with over 20 years of experience, Danusha brings a unique combination of compliance, change management and business analysis skills to LYRA. Her extensive experience in regulatory and transformation projects for global organizations makes her an ideal partner for tackling new AML/CTF requirements and reforms for both Tranche 1 and 2 customers.

She has developed key governance deliverables, enhanced transaction monitoring processes, and oversaw fraud solutions for a New Payments Platform (NPP) project. Danusha’s ability to streamline processes and collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders has consistently led to successful outcomes.

Rebecca has over 20 years’ experience in the banking and superannuation sectors. She has worked for 2 of the major Australian Banks and the largest retail Superannuation fund. Throughout her career, she has led operations, developed risk-responsible cultures, and introduced and improved governance and compliance frameworks, most significantly post the Royal Commission when licensing conditions were placed and subsequently lifted due to Rebecca’s efforts. 

Rebecca's strategic vision and leadership have consistently driven excellence. She has a proven track record of creating robust operating systems and managing controls to enhance efficiency and reduce risks across situations of mergers and acquisitions where the risk maturity was varied and needed to be elevated to ensure the Directors’ Due Diligence Defences were robust and comprehensive.
