NAB has appointed former AUSTRAC chief executive Paul Jevtovic as executive money laundering and reporting officer.
Jevtovic has been leading anti-financial crime and money laundering efforts with HSBC in Hong Kong for the last four years.
He spent about three years with AUSTRAC and was the chief executive of the Australian Crime Commission before that. He has a background in law enforcement, starting as a constable with the Australian Federal Police and working his way up to assistant commissioner with postings in Victoria, Canberra, Queensland, and the Philippines, specialising in fraud and organised crime.
AUSTRAC has been working with NAB to fix holes in its reporting for several years, escalating the matter this week.
