PORTLAND, Ore., August 25, 2021 – NAVEX Global®, the leader in integrated risk and compliance management software, today announced the finalists for its first annual NAVEX Global Customer Excellence Awards.

A robust risk, compliance and ESG program is critical to an organization’s productivity, workplace culture and business success. That importance was put on full display over the last eighteen months. While the pandemic and resulting workplace disruptions were certainly challenging, NAVEX Global’s 2021 Definitive Risk and Compliance Benchmark Report shows the majority of risk and compliance professionals felt their programs met the challenge.

“This past year, our customers’ risk and compliance programs were put to the test like never before,” said Steve Chapman, chief customer officer at NAVEX Global. “So it’s only fitting that 2021 is the inaugural year for NAVEX Global’s customer excellence awards. It allows us to recognize their excellent work in difficult times and showcase some of the best practices in our industry.”

The NAVEX Global Customer Excellence Awards recognize and honor exceptional program performance and the results in five different categories: Ethics & Compliance (U.S.), Ethics & Compliance (International), Integrated Risk Management (IRM), Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG), and overall Corporate Culture Impact. This year’s finalists include:

• Cargill
• Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC)
• FIS
