Which of the following is a common characteristic that asset hiders look for in the...

The2014 International Fraud Examiners Manualstates:

“Asset hiders look for certain characteristics in the financial vehicles they use to conceal assets. Asset hiders want products that are liquid (i.e., items that can be purchased and sold in a short period of time). Moreover, asset hiders want products that are difficult to trace or untraceable. With such instruments, asset hiders can break or muddy links between the initial receipt of the assets and their final disposition. Asset hiders also look for products that are secure and accessible.”

TheCFE Prep - Investigationsguide confirms:

“Asset hiders want products that are liquid, difficult to trace, secure, and accessible… NOT transparent.”

????Interpretation:

Accessibility= common desirable trait (correct).

Transparency= opposite of concealment (not desirable).

Exclusivity= not a standard consideration.

Traceability= asset hiders want the opposite (difficult to trace).
