Despite the significant advancements in investigation and asset location tools at the disposal of practitioners, the class of assets that are considered “exotic” pose unique and difficult challenges and considerations. In this engaging session, we will review:

  • Emergency freezing orders injunctions: Obtaining and maintaining equitable relief
  • Jurisdictional concerns
  • Assets protected by state-owned entities and immunity doctrines
  • How to assemble the correct asset recovery team
  • Collaborating with law enforcement and other government agencies to assist with recovering assets from foreign markets that are unstable in nature
  • Special considerations for easily movable assets
