Investigation Services

Losses due to official misconduct account for a great many maritime trade incidents. Each incident can be complex and wide-ranging in nature. It is therefore unlikely that any one company will have the knowledge and resources to be able to investigate it thoroughly.

If you need help, the IMB has a well-experienced investigation team on standby. In the past two decades, IMB staff have successfully investigated hundreds of cases of maritime fraud, including some of the biggest and most infamous. Importantly, our investigations do not just determine the facts, they are designed to limit the damage and enable losses to be recovered.

We provide a professional and results driven service. Our investigators are drawn from a number of specialist backgrounds, are multi-lingual and have the specific skills you require. We have worked in all sectors of international trade, conducting investigations for a wide range of organisations, from ship owners and managers to insurance and reinsurance companies, and from banks to law enforcement agencies.
