    For family offices eyeing crypto investments, security and compliance are paramount. Self-custody allows direct asset control via secure wallets, minimizing third-party risks. Here’s what to focus on:

    • Regulatory Alignment: Choose solutions meeting global standards like Hong Kong SFC, Japan FSA, and Singapore MAS, ensuring legal compliance.
    • Security Features: Prioritize platforms with HSMs, multi-signature approvals, and continuous monitoring to safeguard assets.
    • Efficient Operations: Opt for solutions that automate workflows, separating transaction approval from cold storage access, reducing manual tasks.
    • Global Support: Select providers offering 24/7 local support in key markets (e.g., Hong Kong, Singapore) for seamless global operations.

    Outline

    The authenticity of a document is often a critical issue in a forensic investigation. Forensic examiners apply proven scientific methods to test the genuineness of a feature in a document, such as a signature or an authorisation stamp.

    In this seminar, the speaker will introduce the disciplines of “Forensic Document Examination” & “Forensic Handwriting analysis” using case studies and examples. Instruments commonly used in forensic document examination such as:

    1. the digital microscope – for the examination of line quality;
    2. the ElectroStatic Detection Apparatus (ESDA) – for the detection of indented marks, and
    3. the Spectral Luminescence Magnifier – for the comparison of optical properties of inks, will be presented and demonstrated.

    Presenter

    Mallory M Y Leung

    Mallory received comprehensive training in forensic handwriting analysis with reference to the training requirements of the “European Network of Forensic Science Institutes (ENFSI)” and the “Scientific Working Group for Forensic Document Examination (SWGDOC)”.

    She has hands-on experience with forensic document examination instruments such as Electrostatic Vacuum Box and Illuminators, etc.

    Since 2020, Mallory has reported on over 80 cases of questioned documents and handwriting examination in both Chinese and English, and served as an expert witness in court proceedings.
