We Talk Careers - Compliance

Today, we continue our season of Wall Street Careers.  We’re discussing Compliance in the world of Exchange-Traded Funds - a critical function responsible for adherence to legal and regulatory requirements. Compliance professionals play a vital role in maintaining the integrity and transparency of the ETF industry. Now, that may sound a bit dry, but I assure you, throughout my career, compliance departments have been filled with some of the most dynamic and interesting professionals at the firm. Today, we are joined by Amy Shelton and Melanie Zimdars.

Amy Shelton is Senior Vice President and Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) for the American Century Funds, Advisor, Broker-Dealer and global operations. Amy is a member of key oversight committees including the Investment Oversight Committee and the Products & Markets Committee. Amy joined American Century Investments in 1994 and has served as CCO since 2014. She leads a team of compliance professionals involved in assessing regulatory risk, implementing policies and procedures designed to mitigate that risk, and performing monitoring to confirm American Century is meeting its regulatory requirements. In her free time, Amy enjoys cooking and hosting paella parties with her husband.
