Interfor, Inc

New York, NY . . . Rosen Seymour Shapss Martin & Company Consulting Group LLP ("RSSM"), a division of the premier middle-market accounting firm, Rosen Seymour Shapss Martin & Company LLP, and Interfor, Inc. ("Interfor"), a leading international corporate investigations and physical security consulting firm, announced today that they are forming a strategic alliance to offer a comprehensive package of financial due diligence, investigations and asset recovery services.  Today's volatile global marketplace, where massive frauds are being uncovered on a seemingly daily basis, demonstrates the vital importance of performing adequate due diligence for an organization, lender or individual investor.  Interfor and RSSM will also offer their services to victims of fraud, as well as to holders of judgments who have been unsuccessful in their collection efforts.  The new strategic alliance will combine the forensic accounting expertise of RSSM with Interfor's global investigative resources and knowledge of legal remedies for freezing and collecting assets.

Interfor, a firm specializing in asset recovery and white collar crime and fraud investigations since 1979, performs enhanced worldwide due diligence investigations for clients who need comprehensive background information about new business relationships and prospective partners in mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, venture capital investments or large loan transactions.  Interfor's asset recovery services have secured billions for their clients from overseas havens like Luxembourg, Gibraltar and the Cayman Islands.

RSSM has been adding value to business transactions for more than 50 years with their superior financial due diligence services.  By incorporating financial, accounting, tax, and information technology expertise through a multidisciplinary approach, RSSM offers the full range of financial, tax and forensic accounting services for financial institutions, including private equity funds, investment banks, banks and mezzanine lenders.

By combining RSSM's financial due diligence and forensic accounting expertise with Interfor's superior investigative asset recovery capabilities and global reach, these two leaders in their respective fields can offer their clients a truly unique, comprehensive package.

"The current global economic situation requires a new, more cautious, way of doing business," said Juval Aviv, CEO of Interfor, Inc.  "RSSM and Interfor have created a dream team for due diligence and asset recovery services by combining our respective leadership and strengths in financial due diligence, forensic accounting, comprehensive background screenings, and asset recovery services."

 "At RSSM, our focus has always been to build long-term relationships with our business and professional experience and to assist our clients in creating value-added business solutions," said Michael Bernstein, Partner-in-Charge of the Consulting and Due Diligence Services Group at RSSM.  "By partnering with Interfor with their global investigative capabilities, we bring additional depth and value to the due diligence and asset recovery services that we offer to our clients.  We are also excited about offering our combined services to new clients who are perhaps seeking a better approach to the way that they prepare for their business transactions, investments and loans or who have been defrauded on their investments or loans because of insufficient due diligence," said Martin L. Greenberg, Managing Partner of RSSM.
