| The shipping industry is an international business like no other. Substantial risk is an inherent part of every-day life, be it financial, physical or environmental.
From a commercial point of view, the simplest transactions can involve many different companies, individuals, countries, contractual obligations and legal systems, some of which will be familiar and some that may not. The cyclical nature of the industry also means that companies join the market on a regular basis, whilst others disappear with equal regularity. The reasons are numerous, from cash-flow difficulties to deliberate malpractice and fraud.
We provide services focused on
resolving issues, litigious or otherwise, that arise
as a result of contractual default, criminal activity
and corporate malpractice. These services include asset
tracing, corporate veil investigation and vessel tracking,
as well as fraud investigation and asset recovery. Equally,
our investigation and intelligence services are often
used to support business expansion opportunities such
as joint ventures, mergers and acquisitions or exploring
new markets. |
