Qwest Forensics
Qwest Forensics offers a highly effective intelligence and investigation service to safeguard your business in the compliance-led and increasingly complex commercial world.

Not all commercial transactions go according to plan. This can result in financial and reputational loss if the counterparty fails to meet their obligations or fraud or other criminal activity is involved.
Qwest Forensics offers services ranging from investigation of a counterparty’s standing prior to fixing, through asset tracing where loss has been incurred, to marine investigations of all types, with ‘boots on the ground’ if necessary.
