Asset Tracing & Recovery

Following value across borders.

Assets can move rapidly through financial institutions, corporate structures, investments, property and other forms of value before becoming difficult to identify or recover.

F. Manous MCBai specialises in the analysis and investigation of complex asset movements, ownership structures and financial relationships in support of recovery, dispute and enforcement strategies.

Our work may involve:

• tracing assets and financial flows;

• identifying beneficial ownership and control;

• analysing corporate and financial structures;

• examining unexplained wealth;

• developing financial intelligence;

• identifying jurisdictions in which assets may be located;

• assessing available recovery mechanisms;

• supporting civil or criminal recovery strategies;

• coordinating information and specialist expertise across jurisdictions.

International in scope

London. The Gambia. Africa. Beyond 

Our work is not confined to the jurisdiction in which an asset originated.

Wealth may move from one country through several financial and corporate structures before being invested elsewhere. An African-origin asset may ultimately be held in London, Geneva, Miami or The UAE; an asset originating outside Africa may be located within an African jurisdiction.

We follow the value across the jurisdictions through which it has moved.
