Testimonials

"As the Global Head of Anti-Money Laundering for the then Corporate Banking and Financial Markets (CBFM) division of RBS Group (now NatWest Markets), I was fortunate to work with Claire, between 2002 and 2007, who designed and supported the anti-money laundering risk management framework for CBFM businesses globally, particularly UK and Asia Pacific regions. Claire built strong relationships with the business area, enabling her to create a comprehensive and robust framework that not only met regulatory and legal advice requirements but was also well-understood and aligned with our business objectives."

"During the six years I have worked with Claire at Billon, she has taken on a variety of roles and responsibilities, always with a highly professional, capable, and proactive attitude. Supporting our UK business in both start-up and BAU modes, Claire has consistently demonstrated her business acumen and reliability, proving herself to be a steadfast and invaluable asset."

Robert Kaluza, CEO
Billon
"Over the past five years, I have consistently found Claire to be a professional and pragmatic risk manager with strong commercial acumen. She excels at ensuring the risk framework supports business aspirations while maintaining a balanced risk profile. It has been wonderful to witness Claire expand her influence from her Board role at Billon’s UK e-money business to a leading position at the Digital Pound Foundation. Recently, we had a fascinating discussion about the rise of CBDCs and the potential opportunities for Billon’s regulatory-compliant blockchain.”
