Strengthening Indonesia's defences against financial crime

Portrait of Robby Kurniawan

Financial Sector Supervisor & AML/CFT Specialist.

I am a financial sector supervisor at Indonesia's Financial Services Authority (OJK), specialising in Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT). My work centres on strengthening the resilience of banks and financial institutions against money laundering, terrorism financing, and proliferation financing risks.

With over a decade of regulatory experience, I bring a perspective that combines supervisory oversight, IT expertise, and policy formulation. I have served as a National Trainer with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), and as part of Indonesia's Sectoral Risk Assessment team I helped shape the country's risk-based approach in the financial services industry.

Currently, I serve on the spokesperson team for Indonesia's Mutual Evaluation Review with the FATF, act as a primary responder in FATF plenary discussions, and represent Indonesia in the FATF/APG Assessors delegation.
