PORTLAND, OR., November 29, 2017 – Leading ethics and compliance software company NAVEX Global announced the appointment of Troy A. Paredes, founder of Paredes Strategies LLC and former Commissioner of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), to its Board of Directors.

“NAVEX Global stands to help customers move from simply complying with the rules to fostering value systems, which in turn build long term sustainable success,” said Paredes. “I look forward to contributing to NAVEX Global’s mission to help organizations protect their people, reputation and bottom line.”
