Fraud and asset diversions have evolved. No two frauds and asset diversions are the same. Therefore, any response to fraud prevention and asset tracing needs to evolve and cannot be restrained.

Further, the complexity of claims on assets diverted including whether on account of competing claims by regulators, creditors and victims or on account of cross border implications or due to involvement of third parties such as investigating agencies keep in-house counsel and lawyers on many nights.
