Starting in banking and finance with a focus on financial regulation at a top tier Swedish law firm and moving on to the banking sector and AML/CTF regulation explicitly, David has gained extensive experience balancing business needs with administrative requirements. At the firm he served as main point of contact in regard to regulatory queries on AML/CTF. His work at Swedbank has included providing legal opinion in specific customer cases and on issues stemming from regulatory ambiguities, overseeing the roll-out of a regulatory framework for an international branch, conducting internal trainings, and researching and providing legal opinion in respect of international financial sanctions and requirements on the governance of the bank. David is regularly engaged to handle and provide material for reviews of the bank by supervisory authorities. He has partaken in the Swedish institute against money laundering’s (SIMPT) expert group developing industry guidelines.
