Experienced fractional leadership for compliance, AML, audit, remediation, technology and Board oversight.
ICRM Services Inc. today announced the launch of Fractional Compliance and Audit Leadership, giving financial institutions and compliance-technology providers access to experienced executive and audit leadership without immediately adding a full-time role.
Organizations do not always need another full-time executive, but they may need experienced leadership now—to stabilize a program, address findings, guide remediation, or lead change.”
— Stephen D. Marshall, President, ICRM Services Inc.
The service is designed for organizations facing a leadership transition, regulatory or audit remediation, program transformation, technology implementation, or another priority requiring sustained senior involvement. Engagements combine a defined mandate, reserved capacity, regular participation in the organization’s leadership rhythm, and direct support moving priorities from decision through implementation and improvement.

Depending on the organization’s needs, Stephen D. Marshall, President of ICRM Services, may serve in roles including:
– Fractional Head of Financial Crime Compliance
– Interim or Contract AML Compliance Officer
– Fractional Compliance Audit Executive
– Fractional Compliance Technology and Product Leader
– Independent Board Advisor for regulatory remediation and compliance oversight
“Organizations do not always need another full-time executive, but they may need experienced leadership now—to stabilize a program, address findings, guide remediation, strengthen Board reporting, or lead change,” Marshall said. “A fractional engagement matches senior experience to the organization’s needs, scope, and timing while establishing clear responsibilities, authority, deliverables, and independence boundaries.”
Marshall brings four decades of experience spanning financial institutions, consulting, internal audit, and compliance technology. His background includes service in Chief Risk Officer and Chief Compliance Officer roles with executive management, Board, and committee responsibilities; leadership of AML and sanctions audits; regulatory remediation; compliance program development; and the design and implementation of compliance technology.
ICRM’s approach connects regulatory requirements, risks, controls, evidence, testing, findings, and remediation through detailed risk-and-control matrices. The objective is to give management and Boards a defensible view of what must work, who owns it, how effectiveness will be evaluated, and what evidence supports completion.
Each engagement is scoped to preserve appropriate separation among management, compliance, internal audit, and independent testing responsibilities. Formal officer appointments are evaluated individually based on the authority, access, resources, availability, and governance required to perform the role effectively.
