A tailored, global response by specialist forensic accountants
We are appointed by insurers all around the world to handle claims under crime policies. It is one of our main areas of work.
Our experience across diverse industries and jurisdictions allows us to bring a broad base of knowledge to the assessment of internal controls, the evaluation of a fraudulent scheme, and the expert quantification of a claim.
From small stock losses, to multi-million-dollar frauds affecting multinationals, we are well-versed in investigating and quantifying all types of claims.
Types of claim that we deal with
Employee dishonesty
Social engineering
Forgery
Theft of stock
We are usually engaged soon after discovery of the incident, so we can apply our expertise from the outset.
We then collaborate with a business’s own team to ensure the efficient and effective handling of the enquiry. We give constructive advice on how best to develop the internal investigation, as well as the active steps that can be taken to mitigate the loss and pursue recovery.
The scope of our involvement depends on the nature of the loss, its potential quantum, the affected business’s own resources, and the terms of the policy. Our reports are always tailored to the specific requirements of our client and the level of investigation is agreed in advance. All of our team understand the importance of identifying cost effective solutions when examining claims with complex issues.
As well as conventional loss adjusting, our forensic accountants can undertake detailed investigations where appropriate. Our experience of audit techniques means we are well versed in financial analysis and are often instructed by insurers in that role.
