News Commentary
Role: Lead Writer & Commentator
I composed three news commentary articles per week for an AML/CFT regulatory newsletter. The pieces would bring out important context for key regulatory developments around the world. Each story focused on one of three regions: the Americas, Europe/Middle East/Africa (EMEA), or Asia/Pacific Islands (APAC). Below are a sampling.
