The Compliance Life details the journey to and in the role of a Chief Compliance Officer. How does one come to sit in the CCO chair? What skills does a CCO need to navigate the compliance waters in any company successfully? What are some of the top challenges CCOs have faced, and how did they meet them? These questions and many others will be explored in this new podcast series. Over four episodes each month on The Compliance Life, I visit with one current or former CCO to explore their journey to the CCO chair. This month, my guest is Bridget Abraham, CCO at Remitly, who had a decidedly non-traditional path to the CCO Chair.

From the Federal Reserve, Bridget then moved into the consulting world, starting a Bearing Point and then Deloitte. From there, she moved into the realm of compliance, starting in the financial world at Citibank, working in Compliance Analytics and Assessments. The banking world was transitioning from a manual approach to compliance into more of a tech solution option. She then moved to Western Union, first as Vice President of Global Compliance Programs, then to Deputy Chief Compliance Officer, where her role was much broader than her prior focus on data and data analytics.
