Corporate Detective Agency Hamburg | Corporate Investigators

Kurtz Investigations Hamburg grows – geographically, in population and, above all, financially, even in times of a strained national economic situation. The metropolitan region generated a gross domestic product of approximately €277 billion in 2022, with a clear upward trend over the past ten years. On the one hand, banks and insurance companies, oil refineries, steel and aluminium mills, chemical plants, vehicle, machinery and shipbuilding firms as well as the largest copper smelter in Europe are located here; on the other hand, the IT and media sectors are booming.

 

In an environment where trade and industry are growing so rapidly, economic offences are almost a daily occurrence. Not everything can be handled or resolved by the responsible authorities, and not everything is reported for reasons of discretion. For these cases the corporate investigators of Kurtz Detective Agency Hamburg are at your disposal: +49 40 2320 5053.

Economic Growth and Economic Crime in Hamburg

Economic crime causes well-known (!) annual losses in Hamburg in the triple-digit millions. With now over €300 million per year, the damage caused by economic offences is six times as high as that from all registered street robberies and thefts combined. So almost every case involves large sums of money and enormous losses.

 

Offences such as fraud and breach of trust in investment schemes, crime connected with employment relationships, insolvency offences and competition law violations belong to economic crime. But infringements of copyright, product and brand piracy, corruption, computer and internet crime, illegal temporary employment and the unauthorised appropriation or use of assets as well as embezzlement also trouble Hamburg companies. From monitoring an employee who is conspicuously often “unwell” and absent, to a senior member of staff supplying competitors with information, to blackmail – all these are cases for our corporate investigators in Hamburg.

 

Demand for and the potential of economic investigations grows year on year. Kurtz Investigations Hamburg conducts case-oriented, discreet and sensitive enquiries into company-internal matters and secures evidence that is admissible in court. If you have questions or problems, you are welcome to send us an email at kontakt@kurtz-detektei-hamburg.de. You can also reach our corporate investigators daily on +49 40 2320 5053.
