Forensic Accounting: Matrimonial & Trust Investigations Breakfast Seminar

Grant Thornton is holding a breakfast seminar on 25 January 2024 looking at Forensic Accounting: Matrimonial & Trust Investigations.

The seminar will provide an opportunity for professionals to learn more about best practices we have experienced in this field.

Some of the key areas which will be covered are:

• The role of forensic accountants in divorce proceedings;
• Identifying and valuing marital assets;
• Tracing hidden assets or income;
• Types of trust investigations and engagements undertaken by forensic accountants;
• Issues commonly encountered in relation to trusts;
