I.Principles

Three principles, written into every mandate.

Debt collection puts the creditor's reputation at stake. Our principles set out what we do on your behalf, and what we will never do.

Article one

The debtor is our client's customer.

No undue pressure, no misleading statements. Every contact complies with French collection rules and our debtor charter.

Article two

Not a single euro bypasses the segregated account.

Funds collected on behalf of creditors are ring-fenced and remitted on the contractual schedule.

Article three

Every action is logged and auditable.

Calls, letters, payment promises and receipts are time-stamped and available to the creditor at any time.

II.Services

From first reminder to enforceable judgment.

Every mandate starts with a portfolio audit. Strategy is then calibrated by segment, amount and debtor profile.
