Vesna McCreery

Chair, International Advisory Board

In addition to chairing our International Advisory Board, Vesna serves on external supervisory boards, combining strategic insight and governance expertise with deep knowledge of financial crime prevention. With over 30 years of global experience, she is passionate about connecting day-to-day financial crime prevention with the broader strategic challenges shaping our world, from the rise of deepfakes and escalating fraud losses to the suffering of modern slavery victims, often coerced into executing such crimes.

As financial crime becomes increasingly complex, Vesna collaborates closely with industry stakeholders to align interests through practical execution, simplicity, and cost control. She has led transformation programs for major financial institutions, designed controls that enabled the lifting of deferred prosecution agreements (DPAs), and contributed to industry guidance. Her career spans leadership roles as Group Head of Financial Crime at Tier 1 global institutions, as well as direct regulatory execution, on behalf of authorities such as the UK FCA, DOJ, and the FED.

As a leading voice in financial crime compliance, Vesna partners with clients and industry stakeholders worldwide to deliver effective, forward-thinking strategies that protect communities and strengthen global financial integrity.
