Inheritance Recovery Specialists
In 2024, Inheritec was established with a clear and compelling purpose: to reunite rightful beneficiaries with lost or unclaimed assets. But the roots of this specialist service reach back further, into the trusted legacy of its sister company, Perane & Co—a well-regarded name in the world of asset reunification.
A New Chapter Born from Experience
Formed in 2012, Perane & Co has steadily built a reputation for tracing beneficiaries and recovering dormant assets for both private individuals and institutions. As demand for these services grew—particularly among clients with more complex inheritance or intestacy cases—it became clear that a service driven by data and supported by the skills developed by the Perane team over time would deliver better customer services.
Thus, in early 2024, Inheritec was founded. The mission: to blend data driven, forensically precise professional genealogy with the compassionate, people-first approach that Perane & Co was already known for.
Inheritec’s aim was to provide a customer focused service that made it easier for beneficiaries to navigate the complex processes of unlocking lost assets, we would create a business designed to —handle challenging, time-sensitive cases involving unclaimed estates, fragmented family histories, and heirs who might not even be aware they’re owed something.
“We saw how many families were being overlooked simply because the system didn’t have the time or tools to reach them,” says Daniel Cane, co-founder and Director of Customer Engagement at Inheritec. “Inheritec was born to change that.”
Leadership That Understands the Human Side of Inheritance
The senior management team at Inheritec brings together decades of experience in asset tracing, legal compliance, and customer care.
Daniel Cane, a respected figure from the Perane & Co team, helped architect the new venture with a clear focus on client transparency and ethical outreach. With his background in both finance and family estate research, Daniel has played a pivotal role in shaping Inheritec’s strategic direction and tone of voice—friendly, clear, and always respectful of the sensitive nature of inheritance matters.
Joining him is Stuart Simpson, a seasoned leader with deep experience in the probate and financial services sectors. Stuart brings structure and scalability to Inheritec’s operations, ensuring that as demand for the company’s services grows, clients always receive a responsive and personalised experience.
Together with the rest of the Inheritec team, Daniel and Stuart deliver a service which balances innovation with reliability—key traits in a sector where trust is everything.
Built for Transparency and Trust
Inheritec’s process is refreshingly simple:
From the first contact—often a letter or phone call—to the final handover of recovered assets, clients remain in control and fully informed.
The company also offers a unique verification system, allowing individuals who’ve received letters from Inheritec to confirm authenticity directly on the website, ensuring peace of mind from the outset.
Committed to delivering customer focused services
In just a short time, Inheritec has positioned itself as a modern, human-centric alternative in the asset tracing world. While still young as a brand, its foundations in Perane & Co’s experience, combined with its forward-looking leadership, place it in a strong position to continue developing our services and delivering value for families across the UK and beyond.
As more estates go unclaimed and as digitisation reshapes the way assets are recorded and recovered, Inheritec stands ready—with the technology, team, and values needed to ensure that what’s lost can still be found and returned to its rightful owners.
