The James Mintz Group is an investigative firm that specializes in "finding hidden business facts quickly, quietly, cost-effectively" for corporations, financial institutions and law firms. One source the Mintz Group mines for data on its clients' prospective business partners (or suspected fraudsters) is PIERS.

For example, PIERS import-export data can fill in the details of a company's relationships with customers and suppliers around the world. PIERS trade finance data sets yield the information most often requested by financial institutions: data on U.S. imports includes both the importer's and the foreign exporter's name and address, notify parties, the bank name, aggregated commodity description, estimated shipment US$ value ... plus the number of financed shipments, total number of shipments, among other detail.

The Mintz Group has also used trade data in support of commercial litigation. One client suspected it had bought the rights to a product whose sales had been fraudulently inflated. Investigators found evidence confirming those fears ... and identified the gray marketer who had taken delivery on the product for later resale. Trade data plays a role in "footprint" investigations as well. In one case, the Mintz Group tied a businessman to Bermuda with records of shipments of marble destined for his residence.
