INSOL International: Asset Tracing and Recovery Handbook: Jurisdictional Perspectives

The Asset Tracing and Recovery Group (ATR) within INSOL was formed to address the increasingly complex relationships between aspects of insolvency and civil and criminal laws and to protect and preserve both traditional and digital assets. This publication serves as a comprehensive guide for practitioners involved in asset tracing and recovery across five key jurisdictions: the Cayman Islands, Singapore, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States. Our Kroll expert and co-chair of the ATR, Ann Gittleman, outlines the key tools available to practitioners, including examination powers, freezing and seizure orders and legislative measures addressing antecedent transactions. The guide also explores privacy and regulatory considerations, the interplay with criminal law in cases of fraud and the growing complexities surrounding digital and crypto assets.

This publication is an important contribution to the global dialogue on asset tracing and recovery within insolvency contexts. It offers practitioners a practical guide to navigate the mechanisms available for maximizing asset recovery and effectively managing cross-border cases. In addition, it identifies key areas for potential law reform and highlights opportunities to enhance consistency and efficiency in asset tracing and recovery processes worldwide.
