The Desk
How the Desk Works
From briefing call to signed reconciliation pack — the path an offline custody close takes through our Hong Kong desk.
The desk is a working method, not a product screen. Offline custody reports arrive as documents; wallets are verified against those documents; the output is a pack your controller can file.
Briefing
We confirm wallet count, report format, cut-off date, and whether a vault visit is required. You name a single contact for variance queries.
Evidence intake
Custody report, wallet register, attestation or sealing logs, and the prior pack if one exists. Incomplete evidence is listed before work starts, not after.
Matching pass
Each reported line is matched to a wallet identifier. Timing differences and dual listings are tagged. Unexplained gaps become variance tickets.
Query window
Short written questions go to your named contact. We hold the pack open until answers arrive or the agreed query deadline passes.
Signed pack
Memorandum, variance schedule, open-item list, and cover note. Optional observation notes attach if a vault visit occurred.
