Consumer behavior and payment trends are constantly evolving, particularly in a rapidly changing economic environment. Faced with changing demands, including an accelerated shift to digital communications, and new regulatory rules, debt collectors must adapt to advance in the new collections landscape.
According to Experian research, as of August, the U.S. unemployment rate was at 8.4%, with numerous states still having employment declines over 10%. These triggers, along with other recent statistics, signal a greater likelihood of consumers falling delinquent on loans and credit card payments. The issue for debt collectors? Many debt collection departments and agencies are not equipped to properly handle the uptick in collection volumes.
By refining your process and capabilities to meet today’s demands, you can increase the success rate of your debt collection efforts.
