At ACI, we understand that you might have to provide information to your supervisor about the benefits and ROI to attending the upcoming Fraud, Asset Tracing & Recovery Miami. We want to make it as easy as possible for you to request approval, if needed. The below letter provides a structured and persuasive argument to demonstrate the value of participating.

Dear [Supervisor’s Name],

I am requesting approval to attend C5/ACI’s 14th Edition Fraud, Asset Tracing & Recovery Miami Conference, taking place September 29–30, 2025 (with a welcome networking reception in the evening of the 28th).

New for this year, limited seating is available for associates at a special rate that is in line with other conferences.

Why This Event?

  • Unlike other conferences, this event has a longstanding track record of gathering top-tier professionals from across the globe—including legal counsel, litigation funders, investigators, insolvency practitioners, and regulatory authorities.
     
  • Given the increasing complexity of cross-border fraud matters, collaboration across jurisdictions is key. Speakers and attendees for this event come from across the U.S., Canada, Caribbean, Latin America, and Europe.
     
  • Attending this program is the most worthwhile opportunity for me this fall to accelerate my professional development and support the firm’s growth, referral network and visibility across borders.

Specific Benefits and ROI for Our Firm:

  • Superior Content to Support My Professional Development and the Firm’s Practice
         :
    • Cutting-Edge Legal and Investigative Strategies: Seasoned partners and thought leaders will discuss new strategies for multi-jurisdictional recovery, enforcement of judgments, third-party litigation funding, digital asset tracing, and leveraging new technology for evidence collection.
       
    • Global and Multidisciplinary Perspectives: I will gain first-hand insights into emerging regional trends and regulatory developments affecting our high stakes matters. Attending this conference will support me in staying ahead of the curve on client concerns-from crypto asset tracing, sanction risks to cross-border discovery and beyond.
       
    • Practical Takeaways: Sessions are uniquely designed to provide actionable guidance (not just theory) through real-world case studies, war stories, and lessons learned in courtrooms and negotiations.
       
  • Relationship Building and Business Development: I will be able to connect with a distinguished group of fraud litigators, arbitration counsel, funders, and recovery experts toward expanding mine and the firm’s referral network.
     
  • CPD and CLE credits are available.
     
  • Post-Conference Value-Add: C5/ACI disseminates speaker-prepared materials that I can share with the broader team and use to create a short presentation or summary memo on the key takeaways for our practice.

Cost Overview:

  • The conference fee is similar to other events that do not offer the same level of ROI: $1,925 USD + taxes
  • Travel/Accommodation: [Insert Estimate]
  • Meals and Incidentals: [Insert Estimate]
