Fraud recovery & whistleblower

Turning investor fraud into a recovery thesis

Capital and analytical support for asset recovery, investor fraud and qui tam matters, grounded in public records, fund flow analysis and a clear view of who can pay.

Executive overview

Fraud creates losses that are hard to recover. Assets move, defendants dissipate funds, and victims lack the resources to trace them. The matters that recover value are the ones where responsible parties and collectible assets are identified early.

LOFFCO applies investigative research, forensic accounting and collectability analysis to fraud matters, and finances claims brought by counsel for victims, estates and relators. Our case record includes matters that followed this approach.

Timing is indicative and depends on complexity and document readiness.

Do you fund qui tam matters?

Selectively, where permitted and where the relator is represented by experienced counsel. Structures respect the rules that govern relator shares and the government's role.

Can you fund before a government action is filed?

Yes, in some cases. Early work can strengthen the record, though timing and confidentiality obligations must be managed with counsel.

Who are typical third-party defendants?

Depending on the facts, they can include banks, auditors, administrators, promoters and other parties whose conduct enabled the fraud.
