Title: Finding the Truth Behind the Numbers: Asset Tracing
Description: This session is meant for external forensic accountants who are hired to investigate fraud allegations or recreate financials, or those wishing to learn the basics of asset tracing. Participants will walk through the asset tracing process from start to finish. The first part of the session will detail how to use documents initially provided to begin the analysis and explain necessary language for third party requests to subpoena additional account statements as needed. The second part of the session will review case studies related to asset tracing. Participants will see multiple examples of financial documents (tax returns, account statements) and will see end results of asset tracing. Participants will understand best practices for written reports and schedules of findings.
