Also included is a breakdown of placements between primary, secondary, tertiary & early out accounts.  You will also find outsourcing and bad debt purchased volume for those firms involved with that end of the debt collection industry.

The Collection Agency Directory also gives you the number of total employees as well as collectors, the total number of offices and the locations of branch collection facilities. It also provides the type of collection software utilized and how many workstations the firm has.  You can see if the agency uses call center technology and how many call stations it has. Of special interest, is how much the firm has spent investing in technology.

You have available up to five names and titles of each agency's senior management. Some firms also provide up to six clients for references. You can also check each firm's corporate organization information, such as when it was founded, who its parent company is, the names of any subsidiaries and what type of non-collection services are offered.

For the very largest credit grantors, we list the 50 largest debt collection agencies several ways. Most important is by revenue and placements. However, we also list the 50 largest by number of employees, number of call center workstations and the number of branch offices.  Interestingly, each list produces considerably different results.

We also provide a separate section listing more than 2,200 names of top industry executives in alphabetical order with addresses, phone, fax & e-mail address. You will find a Supplier Sources section that lists collection software vendors, call center systems, printing & mailing services and skip tracing services worldwide. We provide industry trade associations and U.S. State regulatory agencies. Collection agencies are listed in geographic order by country and there is an alphabetical index.
