Asset Tracing

Asset tracing and forensic accounting are two important techniques used in financial investigations. Asset tracing involves identifying and locating assets that may have been hidden or moved to avoid detection or seizure. This can involve following a money trail through various accounts and transactions, as well as conducting interviews and gathering other evidence.

Asset tracing is typically required in cases where there is suspicion of fraudulent or criminal activity, such as money laundering, embezzlement, or tax evasion. It may also be necessary in divorce proceedings to locate hidden assets or in cases of debt recovery to locate assets that can be used to satisfy outstanding debts. Additionally, asset tracing may be used in the context of due diligence investigations to ensure that a potential business partner or investment opportunity is financially sound and free from any legal or regulatory issues.
