Ottilie+Blanche’s Agile Experts Network (AEN)

A powerhouse of expertise—where seasoned deep FCC subject matter experts, regulators, and battle hardened, integrity-driven auditors, and assurance leaders from cross-sectors converge to deliver with strategic foresight and regulator-grade precision.

As the financial services, technology and regulatory landscape evolves, so must the way we mobilise expertise. At Ottilie+Blanche, we believe that independent excellence, when intentionally curated, strategically deployed with ethical AI-enabled, human-in the-loop methodologies, can redefine the boundaries of assurance, resilience, and regulatory trust.

Our Agile Experts Network (AEN) is a curated ecosystem of senior FCC professionals, auditors and assurance experts, former regulators and strategists who have been hand-selected through a rigorous, executive led, intentionally curated interview process that combines enhanced background screening and stronger alignment with our values, who engage with Ottilie+Blanche and our clients on an assignment basis. Members of the AEN operate with autonomy, accountability, precision, and purpose—consistently delivering regulator-ready outcomes across all engagements.

If you’ve steered FCC functions with commercial acuity, delivered assurance through IIA-aligned methodologies, or led regulatory investigations with integrity and foresight—this is your inflection point —this is your platform to turn deep expertise into strategic impact. Deep expertise is not just recognised, it’s mobilised with purpose, precision, and strategic intent to shape the future of compliance as a source of enterprise resilience. At Ottilie+Blanche, we don’t just mobilise talent. We elevate it—purposefully, ethically, and with precision.
