TURNING THE TIDE
ON CYBER FRAUD

In the interconnected world of global commerce, cyber fraud has emerged as a shadowy parallel, where unscrupulous entities divert billions through deceptive practices. Hong Kong's stature as an international financial center makes it an attractive destination for such funds.

We advise clients on asset recovery where funds have been stolen or assets have otherwise been misappropriated. We have particular experience assisting with complex, high-value, cross-border commercial fraud and business crime, including internet fraud, cyber fraud, online scams, email scams, phishing and identity theft, accounting fraud and investment scams. Our fraud and asset recovery capabilities are supported by a strong background in advising regulated financial institutions on securities and other investment laws and in identifying, addressing and countering money laundering.

Hong Kong's robust legal system allows our practice in cyber fraud, as part of our wider Dispute Resolution Practice, to leverage established legal mechanisms to assist in recovery through this complex landscape. We provide victims with options.

Leveraging more than twenty years of experience serving clients in the financial sector, our firm has carved out a formidable standing as the preferred organisation for businesses in search of tailored and inventive legal guidance.
