TORONTO, July 9 (Reuters) - TD Bank has
appointed Andrew Jensen as the head of financial crime risk
management in Canada, replacing interim head Stephen Joyce,
according to a memo sent to staff by global anti-money
laundering chief Jacqueline Sanjuas on Wednesday.
The change is one of many at the Canadian lender as it
undergoes a U.S. government-ordered anti-money laundering
remediation program following a historic $3 billion penalty by
U.S. regulators for lapses in its risk systems.
Jensen joined TD in 2024 as the global head of sanctions as
a part of the bank's move to hire experts with regulatory
experience. He will retain global oversight of sanctions and
report to Sanjuas, the memo said.
Jensen spent over seven years at the U.S. Department of
Treasury and also held senior roles at Citi and Scotiabank
on global sanctions teams.
The change is effective July 14, the memo said.
A TD Bank spokesperson confirmed the move and the content of
the memo.
