WHEN IT COMES TO CASH IN TRANSIT
WHEN IT COMES TO CASH IN TRANSIT
WE DON'T STAND OUT IN THE CROWD
KNIGHTGUARD'S COVERT PRINCIPALS
Not standing out is the principal Knightguard adheres to, operating covertly and blending into the crowd minimises the overall risk not only for the security operative, but also your business, staff and the general public.
Why advertise the fact that large sums of cash are passing through your business?
Our risk analysis and assessment have proven time and time again that a covert cash in transit service minimises the risk of becoming another robbery statistic.
Industry Trends and Pitfalls...
The Cash In Transit Industry has not been pro-active in its progression throughout the years.
Ideals which may have been effective many years ago may not be relevant in today's climate.
Criminals are becoming more organised, taking more risks and becoming more brazen in their attempts at robberies and heists.
High visibility vehicles and uniformed guards are no longer the safe standard, the high visibility aspect draws attention and informs criminals that not only large amounts of cash are passing through the business but also the times and days in which it is being collected.
Criminals also target these types of services knowing that they not only obtain the cash, but also gain 3 - 4 additional firearms from the guards at the time of robbery.
In order to provide not only the best but also the safest service for all concerned, Knightguard Protection Group stay ahead of the game by continuously improving and adapting our procedures to suit the ever changing environment of cash and valuables transportation.
Why advertise your banking movements by utilising a high profile uniformed service?
Methods and tactics which may have worked decades ago
do not have the same level of deterrence as they once did.
Criminals are more advanced and organised, targeting
the high profile services with the intention of not only
obtaining the cash but also a number of firearms
whilst they are at it.

a deposit delay for you.
We are not involved in this practice and guarantee to have your collection to your
nominated bank on the same day.

Our security operatives carry a float consisting of various denominations.
When our officer arrives for the collection, your staff member receives their float
requirements on a cash for cash basis, the benefits of this are:
-
No need for prior change ordering
-
Our security operative visits the site once reducing the exposure and risk of robbery
-
Saves your staff valuable time, time which could be better spent serving customers etc…
YOU WILL EXPERIENCE NO PROBLEMS IF AN INSURANCE CLAIM IS FILED
The majority of cash in transit insurers utilise Insurance brokers who in turn funnel the
insurance through off-shore insurance companies.
Our insurance terms and conditions are clear cut, if an incident were to happen there would be
minimal to no delay as the process would be handled within the borders of Australia.
YOUR CONFIDENTIALITY WILL NOT BE COMPROMISED
A confidentiality agreement forms an integral part of our service agreement and only persons
with direct involvement or knowledge of the agreed upon service are required to sign the
confidentiality agreement.
This acts as a deterrent for any fraudulent intentions and also aids in Police investigations
if required.

be provided with a copy of this document.
Not only do we comply, we will help you and your businesses comply.

INDUSTRY FACTS
-
Most providers are forced to utilise banks for their client's cash, change and float requirements often falling short due to the banks holding less cash on hand.
-
Those same providers also expose not only themselves to robbery but also your staff as they return to your place of business twice in order to fulfill the change requirement.
-
Some of the larger providers issue their clients a cheque for the amount collected, this puts unnecessary delays on your banking, this may result in a loss of potential interest as well as pressure on your cash flow requirements.
-
They do this to "make money from your money", your money is processed by them, deposited into their own account overnight which increases their share price on the stock exchange.
-
Knightguard does not partake in this type of activity, we value our clients and will assist in an way we can in order to maximise their successand return on investment.
