Debt Collection

Having your debts well-managed not only ensures the financial health and the future of your company, but also lessens your worries.
Putting into practice debt recovery strategies ensures effective debt collection if the right technology is applied. In this regard, there are new approaches to tackle the most significant challenge that companies have been facing over the past year: failure to receive payment on time.

What is debt recovery?

Debt recovery is a process initiated by a company when it needs to collect debts arising from a client’s failure to make timely payments.

The actions taken to collect debts are diverse and have evolved over the years. New techniques were developed with advances in technology that have improved the debt collection process, making it a simpler and automated task.

Despite that, debt recovery can be an unpleasant process for the parties involved since it entails taking measures to collect from individuals who are either unwilling or unable to make payments.

The problem regarding delinquency and debt recovery

The company decides when to start the process to collect debts and it is the company’s responsibility to stay informed about the payment status of its clients.

Tracking the collection management is essential to ensure the financial health of the company since failure to obtain payment for a service or product provided is considered to be another challenge that companies face.

Types of debtors

The types of debtors that default on their payments and from whom companies must recover debts have different reasons for their default.

Fortuitous defaulters

Those clients that have intention to pay, but due to other circumstances, they do not have sufficient liquidity when payment is due.

Victims of Circumstance

As fortuitous defaulters, victims of circumstance have the intention to pay, however, due to unusual circumstances, they have no choice but to delay payment. In many cases, these debtors are part of the involuntary churn rate. As soon as their circumstances improve, they settle their debt.

Intentional debtors

These debtors have no intention of paying and try to delay payment and not fulfill their obligations.

Disorganized Debtors

These are clients who do not wish to become debtors, however, due to their lack of organization, good financial management or knowledge, they do not make their payments on time.

Negligent debtors

A client is a negligent debtor if they do not have the necessary organization to make their payments on time and they lack the intention to pay.

Consequences of delinquency: debt recovery

It is more than evident that avoiding the failure of clients to make payments is crucial for any company, as it is a breach of the commitment between the seller and the buyer. Besides the moral and ethical burden such failure represents, it also has financial consequences that may affect the very existence of the company as it will need to initiate debt recovery processes.

The breach of the terms of payment agreed may result in an imbalance of the company’s accounts, which affects its financial stability, especially if it relies on its income to produce its products or to purchase stock.
