Following a dispute between two business partners, Arcane managed a highly complex multi-jurisdictional asset tracing operation. Our client, a serial investor and a high-net-worth businessman, provided funds totaling over 50 million EUR to establish a gold mining operation.
Following the investment, the acting CEO started adopting an unprecedented standard of living, which didn’t reflect his earnings.
Arcane’s investigation, utilizing well-planned HUMINT operation supported by cyber intelligence tactics, revealed several straw corporations registered in the ownership of the suspicious partner in a tax haven country. After several undercover operations, we obtained confirmation that have left no doubt about projects and business opportunities at the estimated value of 120 million EUR he dispossessed and were intentionally hidden from the investor.
