Terry-Pesce_Headshot.jpg

Terry has spearheaded numerous engagements assisting a variety of financial institutions in addressing Financial Crimes issues, both proactively and reactively. These engagements have involved the design and implementation of AML programs and program elements. She has led large scale remediation and investigative matters, performed numerous independent reviews, and has led training and internal communication, including at the Senior Executive and Board Levels.

Much of her work with Financial Institutions has included assisting clients addressing regulatory enforcement actions, both private and public. She has been called upon not only to assess and redesign programs, but she is often called up to report directly to regulatory and law enforcement agencies on behalf of her clients.  

Before joining KPMG in early 2007, Terry was Executive Vice President and AML Director for the North American operations of a global bank, joining the bank to build out the AML compliance function for all business lines in response to a regulatory order imposed in 2003 and lifted by the OCC during her tenure.
 
Prior to joining the bank in late 2003, Terry served as Chief of the Major Crimes Unit, and Deputy Chief of the Criminal Division in the United States Attorney’s Office, Southern District of New York. There she gained extensive experience prosecuting and supervising the prosecution of major white collar criminal cases, including money-laundering, bank and investment fraud, and tax and wire fraud. From 1999 through 2003, Terry was responsible for supervision and oversight of all money-laundering and tax prosecutions and worked closely with the financial regulatory agencies responsible for oversight of AML enforcement.
 
Terry is a recognized thought leader in the area of anti-money-laundering and has participated in numerous speaking engagements.
