Overview
NAVEX, headquartered in Portland, Oregon, says it serves more than 13,000 customers and supports 88 million people worldwide[10][11]. A consortium led by Goldman Sachs Alternatives, including Blackstone, completed the acquisition of a majority stake in the company, and Arpan Sheth was appointed chief executive[11].
NAVEX is strongest in ethics and compliance programmes. Its EthicsPoint whistleblowing and incident management products, available in Professional and Essentials versions, and WhistleB are widely used reporting hotlines; PolicyTech manages policies and codes of conduct; and it sells online compliance training and conflict-of-interest disclosure management[11]. On the risk side, NAVEX One includes integrated risk management, RiskRate screening and monitoring, third-party risk management and regulatory change management, with the Nira AI assistant across the platform[11].
For organisations whose GRC programme is driven by ethics, whistleblowing directives and employee compliance training, NAVEX covers more of that ground than risk-centric platforms. It publishes an annual benchmark report on hotline data, which in 2026 drew on 2.37 million reports from more than 4,000 organisations[11].
