Jon Glass is a Partner in the Financial Crimes Advisory practice at SolomonEdwards and a nationally recognized advisor on anti-money laundering (AML), sanctions, fraud risk management, artificial intelligence (AI) governance, and financial crime transformation. For more than 25 years, he has helped financial institutions strengthen compliance programs, modernize operations, respond to regulatory scrutiny, and manage emerging financial crime risks.
Jon advises boards of directors, executive management, Chief Risk Officers, Chief Compliance Officers, BSA Officers, and Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) leaders at regional, super-regional, and global financial institutions. His experience spans strategic advisory services, regulatory remediation, independent program assessments, enterprise risk management, technology modernization, and operational transformation.
As financial institutions face increasing pressure to improve effectiveness while reducing costs, Jon works with clients to redesign financial crime operating models, optimize investigative processes, strengthen governance, and responsibly deploy emerging technologies (including artificial intelligence) to improve both compliance outcomes and operational performance.
Prior to joining SolomonEdwards, Jon co-founded The Dominion Advisory Group, a nationally recognized financial crimes consulting firm focused on AML, sanctions, fraud investigations, regulatory remediation, and compliance advisory services.
