CSAR Certification
Why CSAR Certification?
So you say you are an asset recovery professional?
You can hunt the flow of cash from New York to Nepal to Panama and Hong Kong and Tortola and back. You 
can walk into a courtroom in London with documents from Hong Kong and the Cayman Islands and get a freezing order served in Switzerland. You can run a spreadsheet with 5,000 transactions and identify the smoking gun or spot the one fraud needle in the haystack.
You are a specialist at locating and recovering the proceeds of fraud, corruption and other crimes; a champion who has spent a career trying to make victims whole and take back money from those who hold it improperly.
How do you prove it?
IAAR believes strongly that asset recovery professionals, who work as trustees, receivers, attorneys, liquidators, special assets officials at banks, information specialists, intelligence analysts,special investigative unit personnel at insurance companies and other professionals in related fields, as well as government officials such as special agents, prosecutors, detectives and other law enforcement professionals who have the responsibility of winning back the proceeds of crime, can improve their skills and knowledge of essential tools that they can use to improve their success in tracing and recovering assets. In fraud cases, for example, the rate of recovery of amounts stolen by fraudsters is far less than 1 percent.
CSAR certification provides career and organizational benefits
Asset recovery practitioners certified in the field of asset recovery enjoy personal and professional benefits that help create outstanding careers. At the same time, the certifiable skills of the persons that hold the CSAR credential give comfort to their employers that the supremely important work of recovering assets is being handled by persons who meet high standards of competence, knowledge and skill.
Some of these advantages of earning and holding the CSAR credential include:
- Assurance: With a CSAR certification, clients and employers know that you are eminently qualified to work in the field of asset recovery.

This trust makes you a more attractive candidate to turn to when needed by private or public sector organization, victim or client.
- Satisfaction: Happiness comes with a job well done, and with a CSAR credential you will be equipped to tackle any asset recovery task before you.
- Personal and Professional Growth: Certification supports and enhances career advancement. Employers recognize that certified practitioners have the personal characteristics and technical skills that are assets to their institutions and are, demonstrably, high achievers.
- Income: The CSAR certification will in most cases translate directly into greater financial rewards for those who possess it because of the great value that a competent specialist in asset recovery can produce through his or her work. CSARs boast premium talents and skills in asset recovery, and they will be compensated as such.
