His experience and reputation, combined with FTI Consulting’s expertise and network, means that we can now better serve the needs of our clients in this growing market,” said Kevin Hewitt, Chairman of the EMEA region at FTI Consulting.
Karen Briggs, Head of the EMEA Forensic & Litigation Consulting and Technology divisions at FTI Consulting, added: “We are delighted to welcome Karl. he has the expertise to provide our clients with the most robust support on highly complex and challenging issues related to the investigation and prevention of fraud, financial crime and corruption, and how to leverage technology in a constantly changing regulatory environment.”
Also based in Paris, Cyril Naudin is a member of FTI Consulting’s Forensic & Litigation division. He leads and conducts regulatory and internal investigations in France and abroad, mainly dealing with allegations of fraud, bribery and corruption.
