  • Lead daily fraud monitoring, investigate fraud incidents, and coordinate rapid response actions to mitigate losses.
  • Develop fraud dashboards, KPIs, and management reports to support executive decision-making.
  • Conduct root cause analysis of fraud events and implement preventive controls.
  • Collaborate with Product, Engineering, Data Science, and Operations teams to implement new fraud controls and policy enhancements.
  • Review lending policies and recommend updates based on portfolio performance, fraud trends, regulatory changes, and business strategy.
  • Support internal and external audits, regulatory examinations, and compliance activities relating to fraud prevention and credit policy.
  • Ensure all fraud prevention activities comply with regulatory requirements and internal governance standards.
  • Lead continuous improvement initiatives through automation, analytics, and advanced fraud detection techniques.
