Joanna Bailey attended the Fraud, Asset Tracing and Recovery Conference in Geneva

Joanna Bailey who heads Giambrone & Partners’ financial fraud and banking litigation department, attended the Fraud, Asset Tracing and Recovery conference in Geneva.  The conference is widely regarded as the premier event, worldwide, in the financial and banking sector.

She was pleased to reconnect with Racheal Muldoon of Maitland Chambers, whom she instructed in the groundbreaking case of D’Aloia v Persons Unknown & Others where court orders were served via a non-fungible token (NFT) through the blockchain upon the anonymous recipients of the assets. The case changed the face of asset recovery in fraud cases.  They were both delighted to learn that their case was the talk of the conference.

Joanna commented “The Fraud, Asset Tracing and Recovery conference was one of the most interesting and useful events I have ever attended” Joanna further remarked “it was networking with like-minded professionals and hearing the exchange of views was extremely beneficial”

Joanna was invited to the invitation-only Women in Fraud and Asset Recovery Luncheon where she shared experiences with other attendees.

As well as recognising culpability in the organisations facilitating (but not associated with the fraud), by failing to undertake adequate due diligence.
