The Debt Collection Agencies market (DCAs) and contingency collections business has had a challenging business model the last few years.
Key to managing debt portfolios, whether it be early collections or late stage recoveries, is a suitable system of record to effectively manage, maintain, and process accounts and transactions. This includes the processing of payments, calculation of fees and interest, together with contact strategy capability, all in compliance with regulations and individual client policies.
Additional regulation, especially in financial services, has added additional cost of compliance resulting in consolidation to create economies of scale.
QUALCO helps Collections agencies deliver better services with measurable benefit:
The requirement for regulatory oversight has increased, with the evidencing of control and compliance now mandatory and audited. Affordability checks need to be repeatedly assessed to ensure customers are treated fairly with flexible, maintainable payment terms and forbearance options available. Vulnerable customers also need to easily identifiable, with effective appropriate management.
All of this has led to innovation in the sector, with a re-design of customer journeys to ensure fair outcomes and compliance.
Help to remain compliant with QUALCO:
Increasing the use of data and credit scoring to produce models that assess affordability, calculate the success of treatments, create triggers for contact and drive appropriate strategies are all enablers to effectively use integrated omni-channel technologies. They continue to drive down the cost-to-serve.
