Services
-
Inspection of Assets
Asset inspections provide creditors with reliable, first-hand information about financed property. Our field specialists perform on-site verification to confirm the existence, location and technical condition of assets such as vehicles or equipment. Detailed inspection reports help clients assess risk, monitor financed assets and make informed decisions regarding further recovery or enforcement actions.
-
Field Intervention
Field interventions are used when remote communication is no longer sufficient to progress a case. Our experienced teams carry out targeted on-site activities to clarify circumstances, establish communication with involved parties and collect relevant information. These interventions help creditors regain visibility over difficult cases and support the next stages of the recovery process.
-
Seizure and Recovery of Financed Assets
When contractual obligations are breached, timely recovery of financed assets becomes essential for limiting financial losses. Our operational teams support creditors in locating, securing and recovering assets such as vehicles, machinery or equipment. The process is conducted with attention to legal requirements, safety and operational efficiency, ensuring that assets are returned to the creditor in a structured and controlled manner.
-
Asset Recovery in the Automotive Sector
Vehicle financing requires specialized operational capabilities when recovery becomes necessary. Our teams support banks, leasing companies and fleet operators in locating and recovering financed vehicles. By combining asset verification, field operations and structured repossession procedures, we help clients protect their portfolios and reduce potential losses in the automotive sector.
-
On-Site Interventions for High-Risk Clients
Certain recovery cases require a more cautious and structured approach due to higher operational risk or complex debtor situations. Our teams conduct controlled on-site interventions designed to assess the situation, establish contact and support further recovery steps. With strong field expertise and well-defined procedures, we help clients manage sensitive cases effectively and professionally.
-
Cross-Border Operations
Through the AVS international network, we assist clients in managing recovery cases that extend beyond national borders. Our coordinated structure allows creditors to handle multi-country portfolios through one operational framework while ensuring compliance with local regulations. This cross-border capability provides clients with greater efficiency, transparency and consistency in international recovery processes.
