Releasing Frozen Assets

Has your bank account been unexpectedly frozen by your bank and you're unable to access your funds?

Baker Regulatory Services can help navigate releasing your frozen assets.

Banks and financial institutions have regulatory obligations to detect and prevent money laundering and financial crime as well as to protect clients’ assets. Where information held by the bank is insufficient, or there has been unexplained activity, a bank has a right to freeze accounts and the assets until it has obtained a satisfactory level of information and verification to evidence that the assets and activity are not of a criminal nature.

Baker Regulatory Services can help you navigate releasing your frozen assets.

Problem

If your assets have been mistakenly frozen, providing satisfactory information to verify that the assets and activity are not of a criminal nature can be difficult and time consuming leaving you unable to access your account and assets.

Solved

Let Baker Regulatory Services act as your liaison with the bank to ensure that the bank receives the correct information to allow your accounts to be released.
