I.Y.S. Insurance is a multinational insurance company that handles policies ranging from medical insurance to insuring highly valuable items and information.

History

• Insured the largest currency transfer in history. Described as "billions and billions of cash" from the United States to Iraq at the start the Iraq War, for funding and bribes as needed.
• Until two years before the start of the show, Nathan Ford was the company's best investigator. His biggest competition was Jim Sterling. When Nate left the company, Sterling became the chief investigator. Maggie Collins consulted with Nate, and later independently, as a art expert experienced in identifying forgeries.
• When Ian Blackpoole took over as President and CEO, he issued a corporate policy to turn down claims until fully investigated, which resulted in client losses while I.Y.S. successfully stalled until it was far too late for the insurance to matter. In health insurance cases, people died before claims were paid, which was the case for Sam Ford.
• When Sterling ascended to Vice President, he proposed that I.Y.S. begin a new policy of both insuring and securing their client's property when it was on public display. The first (and possibly only) attempt at this policy was the security around the Blackpoole Wing at the Los Angeles Museum of Classical Art.
