About us

UniCredit Credit Management Bank S.p.A. is the UniCredit group's company specializedin problem loan management: we are leaders in the domestic market and we are theonly European servicer that has been assigned the highest Standard & Poor’s and FitchRatings.

Since 2001 we have expanded operations to cover problem loans and receivables forcustomers outside the Group. We're on the market.

Our "non-captive" clients include other Italian and foreign banks, insurance companies,utility companies, securitization vehicles, leasing companies and financial institutions,courts, as well as commercial, industrial and service firms.

Our approach to credit management is based on highly efficient and specializedprocesses aimed at ensuring maximum recovery rates at the lowest management cost:we operate through a highly flexible structure.

Our activity covers several areas related to past-due and non-performing loans andreceivables: NPL management, transfer of non-performing loans, purchase of past-duereceivables from the public authorities, servicing and corporate service provider insecuritization transactions, process consulting.

Through our subsidiaries we also offer the Group and the Market specific products forthe restructuring of mortgage loans of individuals and households (UCCMI), as well asmediation and conciliation services (EIM).

In addition to our status as a Bank, we differentiate ourselves from traditional operatorsin our pursuit, where possible, of out-of-court settlements, our focus on Debtors' actualrepayment ability, our adoption of rigorous quantitative credit assessment and financialperformance measurement systems, and our attention to customer relationships.

Organization

Our corporate structure is organized by type of business. Bank loans/specializedreceivables: for these two divisions there are corresponding organizationalFunctions and Units in place, focused on individual types of loans/receivables.

Our external Networks (Lawyers and Professionals) are also organized according tothis specialized and focused approach.

Our Personnel work in specialist teams organized by type of loan/receivable andcustomer: as a result, there are "dedicated teams" based on the nature, type andsize of managed loans/receivables.

Our Teams are strongly motivated and oriented to goals shared with our Clients:there are incentive schemes in place for our asset managers. The external Network'sremuneration (External Professionals, Negotiators/Collectors) is linked to theachievement of targets (strengthened by specific "contests").

Our operating processes are characterized by a proactive approach toloan/receivable management, based on a specific assessment of expected recovery.

We prioritize our asset managers' activities and systematically select recoverystrategies, with the support of an advanced IT management system fed by updateddatabases that enables quantitative assessment of the realizable value ofloans/receivables.

We have dedicated units and highly qualified staff to oversee every aspect of creditmanagement: loan transfer, asset transfer for troubled firms, servicing, corporateservice provider, auction advertising, consulting and coaching on specificprocesses, special purpose joint ventures.

We also provide conciliation and mediation services, as well as services for therestructuring of corporate and retail mortgage loans through two dedicated whollyowned subsidiaries.
