Jewellery & Diamond Financial Crime Expert Witness
The rise in financial crimes involving jewellery, gold, and diamonds demands expert intervention. At Jewellery Advisory Services (JAS), we provide impartial and accurate valuations, acting as expert witnesses in legal proceedings related to fraud, money laundering, asset recovery, and other financial crimes.
The Problem of Jewellery-Related Financial Crime
Financial criminals are increasingly exploiting the high value and portability of precious items. From intricate jewellery to raw gold and valuable diamonds, these assets are being used to facilitate illicit activities.
Cases such as the recent West Yorkshire Police investigation, where a scrap jewellery business was used to launder £266 million (West Yorkshire Police, 2025), demonstrate the scale of the problem.
Types of financial crime we frequently encounter include:
Fraudulent valuations and misrepresentation of diamonds and gemstones.
Money laundering through the purchase and sale of high-value jewellery.
Asset concealment and recovery disputes.
Forensic analysis for insurance claims and legal proceedings.
The use of uncut gemstones and raw precious metals, in laundering schemes.
