Why conduct Asset Searches in Brazil?

 

How can Asset Searches benefit me?

 

Imagine you're going to raise a building. You do not need to be an engineer to know that before you start you need to identify the type of terrain, whether clay or sandy or stony, its geographical position, whether vulnerable to flooding or collapsing and, especially, what the size of  foundation to be built.

 

The building must be compatible with both the type of land and the amount of floors and volume of real estate units the engineer intends to build.

 

With the administrative or judicial process of collection and recovery of assets the same thing occurs, except that the foundation of a collection action is the search for assets.

 

A previous investigation will ensure that your collection action and your asset recovery process will not be a building raised on the sand.

 

The importance of asset searches in  Brazil and the concrete advantages are detailed and described in  Montax Intelligence Case Studies.

 

Read Montax Intelligence Case Studies to learn about the benefits of assets  search, how to investigate for assets before, during or after debtor´s recovery actions.

  

Property search, how much does it cost in Brazil?

 

Finding assets of a debtor, how much does it cost?

 

In financial and short notice terms, asset research is not cheap.

 

With asset searches conducted by experienced investigators, your chances of winning are increased, but costs can be very high.

 

Unlike law firms, Intelligence & Investigations services companies charge per hour and regardless of the outcome.

 

A reputable asset search company (Pinkerton, Kroll, Montax etc.) charges about US$ 400 per hour, varying according to the complexity of situation and professionals experience involved in on going case.

It is aproximadamente US$ 20,000 each step of investigation of 3 or 4 weeks.

 

But for long-term economic, it is worth to conduct an asset search. It will end up being more expensive  not to hire this kind of service. Notaries charge fortunes.

 

And the lender doesn't know where or in which registry office to begin looking. The professional of Intelligence will tell you where and in which notary to conduct the search of goods, and the name/CNPJ of the straw men eventually used by the debtor.

 

Sometimes it takes just 1h of investigation for the professional of Intelligence to discover the location of financial assets that you or your lawyer have failed in years.

 

Time is money.

 

And "we don't know what we don't know" (Unknown author).

 

Many cases are solved thanks to one information or a single detail that has gone unnoticed for years.

 

Highly skilled professionals that are research specialists of assets in Brazil are more likely to succeed than a lawyer or accountant who researches goods from time to time.

 

We clarify well this issue in the Intelligence in Credit Recovery article - How much Does It Cost (Price) and What is the Advantage To Conduct Asset Searches & Investigations in Brazil?

Brazilian Public Justice versus private investigators in Brazil, which one finds more assets?

 

The Brazilian State has a tripartite system, the Executive, Legislative and Judiciary in a "perfect balance" ... well, it is perfect for the brazilian state and its servers, especially for those from the 1st rank...

 

Everytime we are stolen, defrauded or when they simply don´t pay us, we have to turn to the Judiciary and its notaries administered by the Brazilian Judicial system.

 

80% of lawyers rely on State and Judicial actions for the research of assets, but this procedure in Brazil is carried out in court by lifting tax, banking and vehicle secrecy through the national systems called INFO-Jud, BACEN-JUd and RENA-Jud (government softwares).

 

But the problem is that debtos know how to evade these systems to frustrate searches.

 

Reserch of assets in Brazil does work because many debtors simply has not list their assets at revenue tax inform and realized financial transactions in the name of a third parties, meaning that he has access to everything but... Nothing officialy belongs to him...

 

This is basically due to lack of access to public information, especially from notary´s, which is a contradiction by judges, after all, they are the ones who administer the notary offices, primary sources of property information (Montalvão) where public deeds of purchase-and-sale of real estate and other financial assets are drawn up.

 

Brazil´s Federal (RFB) is only a secondary source of equity information. Secondary?

 

How come? That's right! Well not all assets acquired by public deeds drawn up in notary offices are declared to tax authorities.

 

It seems that Judiciary in Brazil, that has the constitutional duty to resolve conflicts and apply justice, makes it difficult to search for assets....

 

We reveal the social and political origins of this idiosyncrasy, this very peculiar characteristic of economic relations between the elites of Brazil and the Brazilian State in the anthological article Asset Searches in Brazil, Mission: Impossible! - Find out why the Judiciary has a significant amount of guilt in the "laundering" or concealment of assets, rights and values crimes. What should State change in notaries, primary sources of equity information, to reducecorruption, defaults and bank interests?

 

Searching for the debtor's assets by an Intelligence professional reduces the risk of fraud in the judicial sphere.

 

The Judicial branch is the elite of the  bureaucratic establishment (Faoro) that attends notaries, primary sources of equity information.

 

Strangely, when searching for assets of the debtors, judges conduct research of assets only in the Federal Revenue Service of Brazil (RFB), a secondary source of equity information.

 

Hence the search for goods in Brazil through agents of the Brazilian state in favour of a particular person, is: Mission Impossible.
