Source of Funds & Record Reconstruction Review
A structured intake review for clients who need to reconstruct financial records, explain historic funds movement, prepare banking-facing files, or organise a clearer source-of-funds narrative before a transaction, banking review, audit, or professional filing.
Who this is for
This review is suitable for clients whose records are fragmented, historic, cross-border, or poorly assembled. It is especially relevant before banking applications, property acquisitions, company setup, large transfers, tax authority questions, lender reviews, or internal clean-up work.
What may be reviewed
Document trail
Bank statements, sale agreements, company records, dividend documentation, salary records, inheritance documents, exchange records, wallet histories, or other evidence supporting the funds narrative.
Timeline logic
How the funds were accumulated, moved, converted, or layered over time, and where the story becomes weak, inconsistent, or unsupported.
Counterparty readiness
Whether the file is coherent enough for banks, lawyers, accountants, migration professionals, or regulated counterparties to review without obvious gaps.
Next-step route
Whether the matter should continue into a banking-readiness mandate, a source-of-wealth file, a record reconstruction project, or a narrower document clean-up scope.
What happens after intake
- DriehuisGroup reviews the basic file and identifies the likely weak points.
- You receive guidance on which records matter most and where the story needs support.
- If the matter is suitable, we scope the next mandate around reconstruction, documentation, or banking readiness.
What is not included
This intake review does not itself guarantee bank acceptance, tax clearance, or regulatory approval. It also does not replace formal legal, tax, accounting, or financial advice where those regulated opinions are required.
Frequently asked questions
Can this help before approaching a bank?
Yes. That is often the best time to review the file, because weak documentation is easier to fix before a formal submission than after a refusal or delay.
Can this help with crypto-related histories?
Yes, where wallet, exchange, tax, and conversion records need to be presented in a more coherent way.
Will this replace an accountant or lawyer?
No. DriehuisGroup coordinates the record logic and practical route, while qualified specialists remain necessary where formal opinions or filings are required.
Start with a structured review
If the problem is messy records, unclear fund origin, or a weak documentary trail, begin with the intake review before the issue reaches a bank, buyer, lender, or authority.
