President, Co-founder & instructor
Peter Morcos has over 15 years of experience in the financial crime and compliance sector, specializing in fraud prevention, anti-money laundering (AML), risk management, and regulatory compliance.
He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Finance from Davenport University (USA) and a Master’s degree in Counter Fraud and Counter Corruption from the University of Portsmouth (UK).
After founding RCS Canada Corp., Peter was among the first in Canada to offer fractional compliance officer services — providing smaller reporting entities with access to compliance expertise that was traditionally unavailable or unaffordable. Building on that success, he co-founded The Compliance Professor, recognizing a significant gap in accessible, high-quality compliance education and training for reporting entities of all sizes.
Most recently, Peter served as Global Chief Compliance and Risk Officer at Buckzy Payments Inc., overseeing compliance and risk operations across Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Brazil. He has also acted as Chief AML Officer (CAMLO) for multiple institutions, including DC Bank, Pateno, Bitvo, Neo Financial, Bitcoin4U, EZO Systems, BitNational, Speedy Global, and Paysend.
Earlier in his career, Peter held positions at leading financial institutions such as HSBC, Manulife Bank, Scotiabank, and WorldRemit, where he progressed through roles including Premium Banker, AML & Fraud Analyst, Senior AML/ATF Specialist, and Head of AML & Compliance. In these roles, he oversaw independent AML program audits, led FINTRAC regulatory examinations, and implemented policy and procedural enhancements in response to evolving regulatory requirements.
Peter’s expertise spans regulatory compliance program management, AML investigations, financial fraud detection, KYC/CDD processes, sanctions screening, and training program development — with deep experience across fintechs, money services businesses (MSBs), and both domestic and international banking institutions.
In addition to his professional work, Peter serves as Director of Finance on the Canadian MSB Association board.
He holds several professional designations, including:
Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS)
Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE)
Certified Financial Crime Specialist (CFCS)
Certified Forensic Investigator (CFI)
Certified Bitcoin Professional (CBP)
Project Management Professional (PMP)
