About

Head – Information Security Governance & Technology Risk entrusted to drive Enterprise Resilience & Technology Risk Oversight, Strengthening Governance, Trust & Regulatory Alignment I am a Risk & Security Governance leader with 23+ years in financial services, including 19 years across enterprise risk domains. Having previously led Operational, Digital, Outsourcing, Technology Risk and BCP functions, I bring an integrated view of non-financial risk and enterprise resilience. My leadership approach balances risk discipline with business enablement — positioning security as a strategic growth enabler, not a constraint. As cyber threats evolve and digital ecosystems expand, resilient governance is no longer optional — it is foundational to institutional trust and long-term stability. #InformationSecurity #TechnologyRisk #CyberResilience #RiskLeadership #Governance
