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 hours, not days or weeks
• Prioritize most important investigations
So you can…
• Investigate quickly & conclusively
• Save significant time and money in
collections and review

Case Type Examples of what Catelas can uncover
Bribery/FCPA Why are certain people having ‘side conversations’ with the supplier?
This junior person is a key link to the minister (a relative?)

Collect the email of the key contacts in the competitor to see what has been
passed across
Fraud Who else is involved?
Insider dealing Who in our firm knows the people just arrested for insider dealing?
Off Label Promotion Who is sales communicating with? Any inappropriate relationships?
Regulatory enquiries What might be in the information we’ve just given to the regulator?
Industrial espionage / Who has been sending material to webmail?

Notes de l'éditeur KEY POINTSThe first 10 days are critical – define the case strategy with clarity and convictionBy knowing what the case is about and who to collect and investigate EARLY.Case strategy is KEY – dismiss, settle, contest – allocate budget and resources So in summary…Fast, precise and impactful reports within a few days of a case being opened.Providing Intelligent Datapointsor “evidentiary support” - that enables counsel to make reasoned (or fact-based) strategic decisions and eliminate those downstream surprisesOr as I said earlier - our mission is to tell you things you did not already know that will have a material impact on the case.
