I wanted to welcome Catelas as a new sponsor to Corruption, Crime & Compliance.  I have known Catelas for nearly five years and have been impressed by the quality of its products, the commitment of its leadership, and the innovative approaches it has developed to assist companies in enforcement and compliance.

Catelas provides valuable software in the legal & compliance arena and is already being used by most of the top consultancies and many global corporations.  Catelas solutions cover,

Policy Enforcement – real-time monitor for ‘bad actors’

• rules based engine, automatically uncovers policy breaches globally & identifies the ‘bad actors’

• drives behavioral changes which reduce the risk of more serious infractions

Internal Investigations – ‘quickly contain issues’
