Charles River Associates (CRA) Expands Its Forensic Services Practice
“We are excited to welcome Amanda Rigby to CRA,” said CRA’s President and Chief Executive Officer Paul Maleh. “During this period of vigorous shareholder activism and regulatory enforcement, her experience is of tremendous relevance and value to clients who are seeking to strengthen their corporate culture of compliance and confirm the efficacy of their compliance programs.”

Rigby has over 26 years of experience as a strategic professional services executive. Her consulting work has included independent fraud and misconduct investigations, regulatory compliance, risk management, governance, and business operations.
