The ProblemHow responsive are you?
Are your investigations
something like this?
Slow, disruptive
& ineffective
Any Investigation ...
• Involves many organizations, languages
• Collection alerts organization (leads to
cover-up)
• Who is key? Who have we missed?
• Time is money – the longer this drags
on, the more it costs
5. Copyright © 2011 Catelas Inc. All rights reservedFCPA 360 degree
The ProblemA new paradigm
Faster, smarter, more effective investigations
• Insight into entire company (not just who you think might be involved)
• Non-disruptive (investigate before collection and interviews)
• Provide Case Intelligence within days not weeks
• Prioritize most important investigations
Don’t wait until it’s too late…
• Get ahead
• Periodically review your foreign
business relationships
• Compliance peace of mind

Typically 1 or 2 times a year… or as
the business dictates … such as…
• Unbelievable sales growth in Brazil?

• New oil exploration contracts
in Nigeria?
• etc

What is involved?
Fast, comprehensive, effective and non-disruptive

business operations
