MEMBERSHIP AND ACCREDITATION

WE ARE PROUD TO BE ACCREDITED WITH RESPECTED INDUSTRY BODIES IN THE DEBT COLLECTION INDUSTRY.
NATIONAL COUNCIL FOR DEBT COLLECTORS

The National Council for Debt Collectors (NCDC) was established for the benefit of companies that collect debt. The NCDC works to improve the collectors’ environment from a legal and regulatory point of view. It is an industry watchdog that ensures compliance. We have a personal relationship with them and engage often to give industry feedback.

SWORDFISH

Our established infrastructure is supported by our state-of-the-art debt collection management system, Swordfish. Swordfish is a debt management technology system that is designed for managing accounts and recovering outstanding debt. It operates on an up-to-date software platform and uses internet connectivity for on-site and off-site operations and support.

INFORMATION AND CREDIT BUREAUS

We have licensing and access to the largest information databases in South Africa, which includes both consumer and business information. This is a wealth of information, and our case management system is directly linked to this database, enabling fast and accurate tracing facilities.

This enables us to obtain vast amounts of data and background information on individuals and businesses, and helps to fast-track the way we work.

Our management system is also directly linked to national credit bureaus. This allows us to list defaulting individuals and businesses with credit bureaus much faster.

DATA ANALYTICS

The information we access from these databases helps us to streamline the collection process. The data partnership gives us access to the following:

• Predictions in commercial credit behaviour
• Bank code verification
• Account verifications
• Monthly income predictors
• Employment confidence indexes
• Pay date predictors

This information enables us to prioritise when we mine large debtor books so that we can focus on the most viable collections first, and collect more money for our clients, faster.
