About Us
Our Story
Asset Retrievers was established to assist U.S. state agencies to return over $70 billion in unclaimed funds to their rightful owners. The amount of unclaimed funds continues to increase each year, as most U.S. state and federal agencies are not adequately funded to administer their custodial responsibilities.
Our intention is to transform the unclaimed property industry by substantially increasing the asset recovery rate. Most unclaimed money will never be returned to its owners. However, we are increasing the overall asset recovery rate and industry awareness through our claims expertise and outreach using technology. We are making a positive impact on those we serve.
We are transforming the industry one client at a time.
Our Mission
We unite unclaimed property with its rightful owners with the highest level of personalized care and confidentiality. We earn our clients trust through our expertise, integrity, and full transparency.
Our Vision
Our vision is to be a respected leader and innovator in the unclaimed property industry. We are focused on serving our clients by facilitating a seamless and highly rated investigative asset recovery process. We are dedicated to cultivating a diverse, exceptional, and supportive workplace where we all succeed.
