Asset Tracing Services for Individuals and Businesses

Many businesses make the mistake of taking legal action before fully understanding the financial position of the individual or company involved. Even when a case appears strong, recovery is not guaranteed if there are no accessible assets. Carrying out asset tracing before proceedings begin helps make surew legal action is both justified and commercially viable.

At Global Investigations, we provide professional asset tracing services for businesses and individuals in the UK and worldwide. Our experienced team identifies personal and corporate assets across multiple jurisdictions, giving you a clear view of what assets exist, where they are located, and how likely they are to be recovered. This insight allows you to make informed decisions and avoid the cost of pursuing cases that are unlikely to deliver results.

How Asset Tracing Can Help You

We offer effective asset tracking services to find hidden assets. We always work within the parameters you have set us and only ever use legitimate avenues to collect our information. This means everything we find can be legally submitted in court and will serve as evidence to substantiate any claim you make.

For example, if you are involved in divorce proceedings, you may believe your partner is not revealing all of their assets. You have a right to know the truth and we can help you uncover their fraud with our ‘Tracking My Partner’ service.

All of our searches can be carried out in the UK and internationally. We are also fortunate enough to have developed many strong relationships with agents overseas. These relationships are of huge benefit to us and more often than not enable us to uncover assets that have been extremely well-hidden in overseas properties and businesses.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Global Investigations trace assets overseas?

Yes, we can. In addition to providing an unbeatable asset tracing service in the UK, we have an international team with connections in almost every country in the world. If you suspect your partner, loved one, potential legal action defendant or a fraudster of having hidden assets anywhere in the world, we are here to help. We have extensive experience when it comes to identifying assets across the world, including property, safety deposit boxes and intangible assets like bank accounts.

If locating assets on a couple, do we have to do two investigations?

Each case is different, and our trained advisors will be able to assess during your initial consultation if one or two investigations are needed. If there may be assets in both subjects’ names, we would advise two separate checks to be completed or we can do a bespoke search that would look at both subjects together.

Our asset tracking services are the most effective way of identifying international assets and related party transactions for individuals, couples and businesses of all kinds.

Can I find out how much a business is earning?

We offer comprehensive business checks (sometimes known as due diligence) which can investigate the earnings of a Limited Company. Our business checks can not only assess a company’s filing information but also look into profit and loss, other LTD company associations, whether a business owns property, intellectual property ownership and much more.

Our in-depth searches can give a comprehensive overview of not only what a business is earning, but also whether they have other streams of income. International Business Checks can vary slightly depending on the country, but our agents abroad are able to gather significant information regarding a limited company and its worth.

Can you find personal bank details?

In the UK, bank and mortgage account searching can only be undertaken in compliance with UK Courts and the Data Protection Act 2018.

This is for subjects who are being either non-responsive or obstructing the Courts or Police in revealing assets. This search can assist us in the detection of their personal assets and is a highly privileged search at financial institutions to reveal entities such as bank accounts and mortgage accounts.

Please see our information sheet/page on Personal Data Credit Report searches for more information. There may be countries abroad in which we are able to locate bank accounts if we can meet the country’s requirements for this information.

How do forensic accountants help with asset tracing?

When it comes to tracing assets, or even recovering assets, our team of private investigators and forensic accounting team work together to identify property, bank accounts and more. Even if the target has attempted to conceal assets, such as bank accounts, or other assets, our international network of investigators and legal team will identify and, where necessary, help you to recover these assets.

Do you work with financial institutions?

Yes, we can. This is an essential part of asset tracing in the UK and abroad. However, it is only applicable to those who are either non-responsive in the process of obstructing the Courts in revealing their assets. In these instances, this is a highly privileged search which can be used to reveal assets such as bank accounts, mortgages and any other relevant assets stored with that specific financial institution.

Can Global’s asset tracing services assist with recovering assets?

Yes, they can. The first step in recovering assets, whether they are hidden or stolen, is identifying them. Asset tracing and recovery is a complex process, particularly if it spreads across multiple countries. Here at Global Investigations, we can assist with securing assets of all kinds, from physical objects to intangible entities like bank accounts. If you’re looking to reclaim assets of any kind, then professional asset identification is essential.

What is the cost of asset tracing?

This will always be agreed upon from the outset. We always endeavour to understand your exact situation and we will work according to the parameters and budget you set.

Our success rate in asset tracing for fraud is very high, and we take great pride in being able to uncover the real wealth of our clients’ targets.

Please note that each case is unique, and we ask our clients to appreciate that we simply won’t be able to find what isn’t there. However, trust that if an asset from fraud or otherwise is being hidden, we will find it.
