Jan Lutze
Financial Crime Advisor | AML, Sanctions & Payments Compliance

I work with companies to help them understand and manage financial crime risks — without slowing the business down. My focus is on building compliance practices that are clear, effective, and grounded in how people actually work.

Whether it’s AML, sanctions, fraud, chargebacks or payments, I help teams cut through noise, identify real risk, and put in place controls that make sense. I believe good compliance should reduce uncertainty, not create it — and that the best systems are the ones people actually use and understand.

I often work with leadership, product, and operations teams to align compliance with business goals, especially in fast-moving, highly regulated environments. My approach combines regulatory know-how with a practical view of how businesses grow, change, and adapt. The goal is always the same: real risk containment, without unnecessary friction.
