Our Year in Review

This was truly yet another banner year for Cachet International!

We are so grateful to our clients who entrusted their forensic asset investigation assignments and beneficial ownership investigation needs to us. We conducted these investigations in 64 countries, including almost all existing offshore tax havens, and located over $2 billion in hidden assets and provided success for a growing number of clients!

The year stands out among our 25 years in the forensic asset investigation business, for the following reasons:

• First, the last two years were marked by a remarkable spike in sovereign state asset investigations involving high-profile PEPs with not-so-clean hands.
• Second, it delivered one mega-settlement for a client who was able to secure a settlement of nearly £1 billion, after a UK court issued an interim relief measure supported by findings stemming from Cachet International s eight-month investigation headed by Michele Palmer. The court issued a freezing order ex parte (i.e., without the defendant s knowledge) that instantly froze all the defendant s assets worldwide, even though the defendant s holdings in the UK were relatively modest. Michele Palmer provided the client s lawyers with the information on this unique tool, which is described in detail by UK attorney Keith Oliver in Civil Interim Measures in England. Mr. Oliver is a senior partner at Peters & Peters in London and widely acknowledged as an expert on UK interim measures. (If your target has or may have any holdings or positions in the U.K., you may want to consider exploring the benefits of this valuable instrument.)
• Third, the year will surely be remembered fondly by a client who, backed by our findings, did not settle for a pittance of a mere $30 million but embarked on litigating his case instead, only to end up with a stunning victory, being $450 million richer than before. This was one of several cases that proved cryptocurrencies wallets are neither anonymous nor impenetrable, and transfers can be traced successfully to conversion into fiat money.
• Fourth, congratulations to a very special client who captured our hearts when she was made to believe that her spouse was almost bankrupt and could not possibly pay alimony for their handicapped child. She did not allow herself to be exploited! (You deserve our admiration and gratitude for trusting us and joining us on our year-long crusade of proving that his financial network of hidden assets was well spun but not impenetrable.) She followed us on our quest to finding her spouse s worldwide assets, and did not just get even, but got it all!
• Finally, just when we thought we had seen it all, we hunted down yet another father of a special needs child, who went through great pains of closing all accounts that were known to his wife, moving all his assets and hiding more than $20 million US in NINE different jurisdictions around the globe - for the sole reason of NOT paying his wife alimony and child support.

Strong Beginning to the New Year. As evidence that last year was not an outlier, we were happy to start the new year with another strong success. After over one year of delaying and impeding by three sovereign states, the defendant country has agreed to pay a U.S. litigation firm an eight-figure settlement in a massive liability suit. These governments consistently obstructed progress in this suit, and it was only when met with our continued supply of detailed information and facts that these governments agreed to cease their resistance to this suit and pay the victims. We were grateful to help the deserving families of the victims to obtain an eight-figure settlement.

Once again, thank you for putting your trust in us! We will strive to make what is our 25th year in financial investigations an even better one for our existing and new clients! We are relentlessly dedicated to you and your success. Always pursue your goals and dreams with method and enthusiasm. We will stand by you and either find a way or make one!
