Dr. Erich Schmidt Publishers in Berlin will also be showcasing its book Asset Tracing & Recovery – The FraudNet World Compendium to the public on the occasion of this conference. For the first time, this compendium will give its readers the possibility of asset tracing and recovery on an international scale in a general part and a national part. At present, this national part will present no less than 36 states throughout the world with the tools there for asset tracing and recovery. This national part was written exclusively by members of FraudNet and in its thrust it goes far beyond the scope of previous publications that have neither contained a general part nor included more than 10-15 states throughout the world. This manual’s editor is Attorney at law ||Bernd H. Klose|| from Friedrichsdorf in the German region of Taunus, who is simultaneously the only German representative of FraudNet and that the German Section of ICC has put on successful events in the past with.

Attorney at law ||Bernd H. Klose|| will take pre-registrations for the conference under konferenz@raklose.de. The number of persons attending is limited. Since the German Chapter of the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners e.V. and the German Chapter of ASIS International has promised to assist, we explicitly request you reserve on time.
