Founder & thought leader
Eric Groothedde
Leading EU Expert in Crypto Financial Crime Risk Management for Financial Institutions
I help financial institutions and crypto asset service providers take demonstrable control of crypto financial crime risk — through advisory, training, and structured risk tools built on direct institutional experience.
I founded Crysk (a merge of 'crypto' and 'risk') in the autumn of 2023, building on years of experience in senior leadership roles across both banking and crypto, including ING and Binance. Since launching my advisory practice, I worked with leading financial institutions—including Rabobank and ABN AMRO—to design and strengthen executive‑level financial crime controls for crypto.
How I work
Advisory: Direct senior engagement for executive teams navigating crypto financial crime risk — from control gap diagnostics to full framework implementation.
Crysk Institute: Tailored training programmes for financial institutions and CASPs — from foundational awareness to MiCAR certification.
Crysk Risk Lab: Practitioner-built tools for organisations that need structured solutions without a full advisory engagement.
