• Crypto Asset Recovery - Fraudsters continue to embrace crypto as a mechanism to facilitate fraud, or a route for the obfuscation and dissipation of stolen assets. VERUM's  intelligence and asset tracing team investigate the technical and non-technical clues, leveraging off tracing where the funds went and identifying responsible parties.

​

• Due diligence – into potential business partners, suppliers and new clients, including the degree of risk in working with new people who may have undisclosed affiliations, regulatory failures, financial troubles (including failed companies) or be under government/regulator scrutiny.

​

• Financial misrepresentation – including former bankruptcies, foreclosures and tax debt, vital information in new partnerships and mergers, but also important when committing substantial resources to orders from new clients.

​

• Litigation background – including historical litigation against individuals and companies.

​

• Covert surveillance – ensuring that employees and partners are meeting contractual and legal requirements, including seeking out corruption, bribery and insider trading along with the more commonplace business risks like pilferage.

​

• Counter-surveillance – industrial espionage, fraud and theft are increasing problems for industries where counterfeiting and intellectual property rights are at risk along with the loss of products and raw materials. Counter surveillance has become an occasional necessity for many companies, especially in areas where international fraud and the grey market are destroying profits. Technical surveillance counter-measures are highly specialised activities and we have a dedicated resource that our clients can call upon.
