Proximal and distal ends of the hook are joined to the belt by length adjustable straps. The board is positioned within the hook with three-points of mutual contact between the board and the interior of the hook. The hook may have a spring clamp for securing a paddle. When not in use the hook and straps are placed within the hook bag.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus and computer program products are provided for monitoring compliance in reporting unclaimed property. The method is capable of identifying both potential non-reporters and potential under-reporters. In this regard, potential under-reporters may be identified as a result of a multilevel review that may take into account the recent reporting history, both in terms of frequency and the type and quantity of unclaimed property that has been reported. The potential non-reporters and potential under-reporters may then be further evaluated, such as by means of an audit or other follow up procedure, to insure compliance.
