Within the complexity and busy-ness of our lives, some things get lost or forgotten.
Even important things, like shareholdings, inheritances and insurance policies.
And why would you look for an asset, or inheritance if you didn’t know they were lost?
Or, you didn’t even know you had them in the first place?
"Hanbury and Co is in the business of reuniting lost assets with their rightful owners."
We understand that assets can become lost through a company merger or that a person could be quite unaware that the asset was assigned to them. Or perhaps a family relative has passed and you may be the most likely heir.
We are a Sydney-based research company that looks for these kinds of unclaimed assets.
Hanbury and Co have been reviewed, approved and entrusted to use database information and database analytics held by private Australian companies and various custodians.
Assets are meticulously and individually researched to determine that the asset is most likely “lost” and to estimate the current value. Once the asset is determined most likely lost, we search, utilizing genealogical methods, to find the rightful owner. We then contact that person and assist them in the recovery.
These assets may be large or small. But whatever the size,
they could be yours. Hanbury and Co will help you confirm
that ownership and most importantly, claim them.

This is the last known address the holder had on file for the named owner. The unclaimed asset in question is not the home or land represented by the address. The address is provided as an identifier.

"When Rodney Denington first contacted me regarding lost monies and shares, I was understandably sceptical. However, I quickly found him to be extremely knowledgeable, professional and highly regarded in his field.
Learning that Hanbury & Co works directly with major financial institutions, custodians and government bodies in relation to asset tracing and genealogical research gave me great confidence in both the legitimacy and integrity of the business.
The outcome of my matter was highly successful and I would strongly recommend speaking with Rodney to better understand the services Hanbury + Co provides."
Teresa
Client of Hanbury and Co
I had the pleasure of sharing an office and working closely with Rod Denington for six years at Worthington Clark, where we were both case managers.
Rod is incredibly knowledgeable and accomplished in asset research and restitution, and he brings kindness, calmness and integrity to everything he does. He was a wonderful and supportive colleague — someone you can trust implicitly, both professionally and personally.
It is wonderful to see Rod leading Hanbury + Co with the same dedication, care and commitment.
I could not recommend him more highly.

Rodney Denington joined Worthington Clark Pty Ltd in 2009 and quickly proved himself to be an invaluable asset to the company.
He was a loyal and dedicated team member, highly skilled in negotiation and committed to performing at the highest level across all areas of the business when required. Rodney consistently demonstrated professionalism, efficiency, integrity and a willingness to support others wherever needed.
Although we have not worked together since my retirement from the company in 2013, we have remained firm friends and I continue to hold him in the highest regard.
I wish Rodney every success leading Hanbury + Co into the future.
