Introduction

Qualco Manual 2015 Managing Director of Qualco UK, Christian Jacob, explains his commitment to data quality and the reasons behind wanting the industry to utilise a standardised data exchange.

I

t’s tough to be in our sector right now. The spotlight is firmly on the requirement to comply with enhanced regulation, which comes at the same time that pressure from the top has increased to optimise collections efforts.

Here at Qualco this is what we do. We help our clients achieve both goals. At the very heart of the company, which has grown significantly since June 2012, is analytics. We help originators and debt purchasers understand their customers better. To recommend the best collection strategy for each individual, to enhance performance, to value a portfolio. Data excellence is key to the services we provide and we offer clients a panel of more than 20 DCAs, all of whom have been certified for their achievement and quality in meeting specified guidelines for the transfer of customer data. Qualco continues to develop a standardised file transfer manual (FTM) that successfully conforms to the most stringent data regulation. With four levels of certification, DCAs must achieve a Blue Certification of Conformance to become an approved panel member. The level of certification denotes the quality of and regularity that data loads are sent and meet our specified requirements. Clients can be rest assured that when they receive data from a certified member that it is representative of the activities undertaken on their behalf.

Christian Jacob Managing Director Qualco UK

Qualco champions the safe passage of data, and as part of that we are pleased to make this FTM available to any firm that wishes to use it. In doing so you can be confident that the data you are transferring complies with any regulation that faces you. Pass this manual onto your supplier technology team as from page 11 we provide you with our specification for your future data uploads. We value your feedback, so if you have any suggestions to improve the manual for the next release, please get in touch with us at info@qualco.co.uk. Thank you for your time in reading this, by way of a thank you, I would be delighted to offer you a free assessment of your panel and/or asset management strategy. Please get in touch today.

Our staff

An eclectic mix The team at Qualco UK is small but perfectly formed, having seen significant growth in the last 12 months of operation. Here we offer you a glimpse into the team at Waltonon-Thames, all of whom play an important part in our journey to create technology that delivers intelligence, efficiency and better results.

Name: Andrew Cokayne What do you do for Qualco? Lead Analyst; responsible for all aspects of data coming in and going out of Qualco. This includes the on-boarding of new clients, creating the connectors to integrate the data from both parties, reconciliation of back-book portfolios and all data analysis. Also provide SQL support and create adhoc reports for clients and other Qualco colleagues. What do you think is the biggest challenge in the industry right now? The increase in regulation and compliance. This had led to an increase in costs at the debt collection agencies, slowed down the time it takes to collect debt and has put pressure on resourcing. How the rest of your Qualco colleagues would describe you in three words Methodical, Easy-going, Sophisticated The best thing about working for Qualco is… It has provided me the opportunity to work with people I like and respect and to grow a new start-up company into a leading technology provider within the debt recovery industry.

Name: Helen Mortimer What do you do for Qualco? Office Manager; co-ordinating finance, HR, and facilities. My responsibilities relate to the day-to-day running of the business; liasing with internal and external teams and the general well being and support of staff. What do you think is the biggest challenge in the industry right now? I think the industry is facing a challenge in its identity; collections and recoveries has become a significant element of an organisation’s back office process yet there is reluctance to accept this. How the rest of your Qualco colleagues would describe you in three words Organised, Considerate, Approachable The best thing about working for Qualco is… Working alongside great people who work extremely hard to ensure we deliver on our promises.

Name: Richard Nash What do you do for Qualco? Head of Client Operations; this means I implement and manage all client relationships on both the Asset and Panel management products within Extra Collect. I review outsourcing strategies for clients in order to create business improvements to maximise outsourcing collections. I am responsible for sourcing industry leading agencies and managing all portfolios and their ongoing strategies. What do you think is the biggest challenge in the industry right now? Ever changing industry requirements all agencies (purchase/contingent) have to conform to relating to regulations, and having to fit these into a business model that is cost effective to work for everyone. How the rest of your Qualco colleagues would describe you in three words Motivated, Dynamic, Passionate. The best thing about working for Qualco is… Being part of a business where no idea is a bad idea, being in a position to start something and fully see if through to the end in an industry that needs change.

Name: Victoria Oliver What do you do for Qualco? Project Manager, with overall responsibility to help the successful initiation, planning, design and execution of the Intra Collect system into our UK clients. What do you think is the biggest challenge in the industry right now? Compliance and vulnerability and whether it is in the best interest of the customer, i.e. for a missed payment due to a banking error or card expiring, to go through an I&E for 45 minutes is not in the best interest of the customer. How the rest of your Qualco colleagues would describe you in three words Determined, Focused, Knowledgeable and Insightful (oh, that’s four!) The best thing about working for Qualco is… Qualco encourages innovation and making their products effortless to use.

Our staff

An eclectic mix

Name: Carl Williams What do you do for Qualco? Operations Manager; my main responsibility is for agency relationships and reporting. I look at the dayto-day activity from the agencies on each portfolio and work alongside them to improve/increase collections to look to generate increased revenue. What do you think is the biggest challenge in the industry right now? It would have to be around the FCA and businesses ensuring they are at a level that meets the FCA’s expectations. How the rest of your Qualco colleagues would describe you in three words ‘Best Ask Them’! The best thing about working for Qualco is… Joining Qualco as the fourth full time employee and being involved in and playing a part of the steady growth that has happened here over the last few years is extremely rewarding and exciting.

Name: Charlie Wong What do you do for Qualco? Head of Product Development: The product development team is in charge of delivering solutions that are innovative, practical and reliable. We are responsible for product design and ensure that all rollouts are smooth and seamless. In our search for new and creative ideas, we pay close attention to our clients’ needs while capturing insights from the wider market. These benefits are then passed on quickly to our clients in the form of continuous improvements to our solutions. What do you think is the biggest challenge in the industry right now? It would have to be implementing the best tools to a rigid industry within a fast changing landscape. How the rest of your Qualco colleagues would describe you in three words Ready, Steady, Go! The best thing about working for Qualco is… Working within a technically advanced team with broad experience and unique insights into the industry, from purchase to panel management to collections.

he aim of this document is to describe the batch integration speciďŹ cation for the exchange of information between the Panel Management

System (henceforth QC) and the Debt Collection Agencies (henceforth DCAs) to which a delinquent portfolio is assigned for collections and recovery treatment.

3. Export Files (QC ----> DCAs)

3.1. Export Files Naming Conventions The name of the files exported from QC to DCAs has the following structure: <EXP>_<DCA INTCODE>_<FILE ABBREVIATION>_<SEQUENCE NUMBER>_ < CREATION DATE>.txt * * * *

*

EXP: Indication for exported files. DCA INTCODE: DCA’s unique internal code as parameterized in QC. FILE ABBREVIATION: The abbreviation of the integrated file. See section 3.3 for file name abbreviations. SEQUENCE NUMBER: The export sequence of each file of the same type provided to a DCA. For each new file of the same type exported, an increment value of 1 will be added. No gaps should exist between files and in case a failure occurs, file(s) will be exported with the same sequence number. CREATION DATE: File creation date in YYYY-MM-DD format.

3.2. Export Files Basic Information * * * * *

* *

Files exported from QC are text files of predefined format (*.txt). Export files will be one (1) vertical bar ‘|’ delimited (Column Separator) and #10#13 End of Line (CR-LF: Record Separator). “Enter / Return” characters (UNIX LF or Windows CR-LF based) that might misquote the format stability of the files will be replaced during export by a predefined sequence of characters. Vertical bar “|” characters existing in field content will be replaced during export by a predefined sequence of characters. Fields included in the export files will have the following data types and formats: o Alphanumeric. A maximum length is defined for each field of this type (section 4.4) o Date fields will be formatted as YYYY-MM-DD. Y denotes the year part, M the month and D the day. Apart from the dash separator ‘-‘, only numeric values (0-9) will be included. When date values exist in these fields they will have a standard length of 10 characters. o Integer fields will not contain thousand separators and in case of negative values they will be prefixed with a minus sign. When integer values exist in these fields they will have a maximum length of 10 characters. o Decimal fields will have a maximum specification of numeric (19.4), meaning 4 decimal points and a maximum of 15 integer digits. Dot ‘.’ will be the decimal separator and no thousand separators exist. In case of negative values they will be prefixed with a minus sign. In all files, for fields without values (unless a default value is explicitly specified), an empty string will be used (“||”) In order to ensure completeness of a file’s content at the completion of the file transfer process, the character string “EOF” will be provided as a trailer record.

4. Import Files (DCAs ---> QC)

4.1. Import Files Naming Conventions The name of the files imported from DCAs to QC should have the following structure: <IMP>_<DCA INTCODE>_<FILE ABBREVIATION>_<SEQUENCE NUMBER>_ < CREATION DATE>.txt * * * *

*

IMP: Indication for imported files. DCA INTCODE: DCA’s unique internal code as parameterized in QC. FILE ABBREVIATION: The abbreviation of the integrated file. See section 4.3 for file name abbreviations. SEQUENCE NUMBER: The export sequence of each file of the same type provided by a DCA. For each new file of the same type exported, an increment value of 1 should be added. No gaps should exist between files and in case in which a failure occurs during import, file(s) should be exported with the same sequence number otherwise they will be rejected prior to loading. CREATION DATE: File creation date in YYYY-MM-DD format.

4.2 Import Files Basic Information * * * * *

36

Files imported to QC should be text files of predefined format (*.txt). Import files should be one (1) vertical bar ‘|’ delimited (Column Separator) and #10#13 End of Line (CR-LF: Record Separator). “Enter / Return” characters (UNIX LF or Windows CR-LF based) that might misquote the format stability of the files should be replaced during export (DCAs responsibility) by a predefined sequence of characters. Vertical bar “|” characters existing in field content should be replaced during export (DCAs responsibility) by a predefined sequence of characters. Fields included in the files provided by DCAs should have the following data types and formats:

Your innovation, realised


o

* * * * *

Alphanumeric. A maximum length is provided for each field of this type (section 5.4) o Date fields should be formatted as YYYY-MM-DD. Y denotes the year part, M the month and D the day. Apart from the dash separator ‘-‘, only numeric values (09) should be included. When a date value exists in these fields it should have a standard length of 10 characters. o Time fields should be formatted as HH:MM:SS. H denotes the hour part, M the minutes and S the seconds. Apart from the dash separator ‘:‘, only numeric values (0-9) should be included. When a time value exists in these fields it should have a standard length of 8 characters. o Integer fields should not contain thousand separators and in case of negative values they should be prefixed with a minus sign. When integer values exist in these fields they should have a maximum length of 10 characters. o Decimal fields should have a maximum specification of numeric (19.4), meaning 4 decimal points and a maximum of 15 integer digits. Dot ‘.’ should be the decimal separator and no thousand separators should exist. In case of negative values they should be prefixed with a minus sign. In all files, for fields without values (unless a default value is explicitly specified in section 5.4), empty string should be used (“||”) In order to ensure completeness of a file’s content at the completion of the file transfer process, the character string “EOF” should be provided as a trailer record. In case a record in a file fails loading the whole file will be rejected to ensure data integrity of the information received. The files from DCAs must be uploaded to a predefined sFTP directory. When all files are uploaded, the control end of transmission file (ACK file) has to be uploaded. The DCA files (including the control file) have to be uploaded each day between 08:00 and 22:00 in order to be loaded to QC with the upcoming EOD flows.

Christian Jacob Although relatively new to the UK, panel management specialist Qualco has made a big impact. Fred Crawley talks to managing director Christian Jacob about how his background in the world of industrial processes has mixed with European ingenuity to create something unique. Reproduced with permission from Credit Today, March 2015

An exact science

C

hristian Jacob, managing director of Qualco UK, has been well known in the collections industry since his days at panel and asset management firm Credit Account Management (CAM). Yet prior to that, he worked in a very different world – before getting to grips with credit management, Jacob was a process analyst in industries as diverse as petrochemicals, generated gases and travel. When he took the reins at Qualco to lead the new provider into the UK market in 2012, his experience in operations was applied to a business with some interesting DNA of its own, stemming from its origins in the Greek market. The result has been eye-opening: in just under three years since opening its doors, Qualco UK has developed a strong book of clients amongst both the creditor and debt purchase community, and is now looking to step up a gear in picking up new business.

54

For Jacob, this is the second time he has led growth in the world of panel management. As operations director for CAM from 2008 to 2012, he saw the business transform to operate on a whole new scale, following a landmark 35-agency deal with Shop Direct Group in 2007. On 2 March 2012, TDX Group acquired CAM from its former owner, Interlaken Group, and Jacob decided to move on to consulting work. In short order he encountered Qualco: a Greek company originally founded by two engineers in the mid-1990s to offer process solutions to the manufacturing, construction and shipping sectors. Qualco’s development over the years had led it to specialise in credit management, as well as diversifying into financial services – by the time Jacob met the business, it had considerable experience in developing collections systems across Greece and the Balkan states. In doing so, it had evolved some impressive idiosyncrasies.

Your innovation, realised


Unique hurdle In Greece, regulation has historically prohibited third parties from collecting money from customers, creating a unique hurdle for DCAs to overcome. While Greek agencies were able to engage with customers, money could only be paid directly to creditors. As such, it was up to DCAs to advise customers how to repay the originating organisation, and up to those originators to inform DCAs how much money they had been paid as a result. In this situation, and with DCA compensation linked to activity rather than total collections, it was therefore vital for banks and DCAs to share an efficient, transparent and auditable way of exchanging collections data. Today’s Qualco UK, working with a number of debt purchasers and originators, has made good use of that Greek heritage. In particular, lessons learned on the continent have been increasingly useful as UK DCA remuneration models come to be based more on levels of activity and stored accurate information rather than on total collections alone. Jacob says the priority for Qualco UK is “to make the exchange of information between creditors and collectors as transparent as possible, letting all parties know what has been collected and when, as quickly as possible.”

In terms of client base, Qualco’s business is split roughly half and half between originators and debt purchasers, although by raw volume it is more weighted towards the debt purchase business. In terms of debt purchasers, the company’s initial customer base centred on the mid-tier, though Jacob says that as its third anniversary approaches, Qualco is in a good position to serve all sizes of customers including the true giants of the industry. Nevertheless, he says, given the major structural changes prompted by rapid growth at the top of the market, some time may be needed before things are settled enough for the larger players to embark on major systems investment. Mishmash of data Jacob accepts that some debt purchasers still prefer to build their own panel management models, and is keen for Qualco to advise them on doing so. Nevertheless, he is of the opinion that – especially as the market heats up and puts the resources of even the largest operations to the test – specialist providers will remain the best option. “A purchaser’s skill is in pricing and buying debt” argues Jacob, “not in placing it, or building a platform on which to do so. Apart from anything else, developing a platform also requires major economies of scale to be worthwhile, with millions of accounts on file necessary to justify the expense.” >

Even among the largest scale debt purchasers, Jacob warns there are serious operational challenges.

Once again, he points out that many of the market leaders have grown quickly through large scale M&A activity, and must have a keen eye on ensuring their technology has grown up with them, rather than ending up with a mishmash of legacy data. “Consistency is everything”, he adds. But meeting the challenges of DCAs is also a priority for Qualco. One of the most important goals in panel management, says Jacob, is efficient segmentation – “treating agencies fairly” he explains, “means giving them the portions of debt they are able to service best”. This idea of giving the right debt to the right agency is especially significant at a time where more and more DCAs are specialising in particular niches – such as deceased or insolvent estates, for example – in order to flourish in a market which favours competition through scale. Jacob comments: “it’s no secret that margins have been squeezed for agencies. We look after our agency panel – it’s all the more important, now DCAs are under pressure, to get exactly the right accounts allocated to the right partner.”

56

“I certainly think there is room for a number of DCAs in the market. So long as there are not too many restrictions on their physical operations, if they are able to specialise, deliver continuous improvement, and they are willing to be flexible on compensation models, they will survive.” Big business In serving creditors, purchasers and DCAs alike, Jacob recognises that clear recordkeeping and simple, manageable process design is central to success – especially in relation to the burden of proof demanded by new regulation. “The backbone of compliance is the ability to track and evidence all activity around an account,” he explains. “If you’re giving accounts out to a third party, and in return just getting the amounts and timings of payments, you’ve got a problem: “a letter was sent” or “a call was made” only tells you so much.” Jacob’s eye for detail and process was honed in the wider world of industry, where he worked with organisations such as Shell and Air Products, a 40,000-employee compressed gas producer based out of Pennsylvania. “In that industry”, he says, “if you get the data wrong, the consequences could be disastrous.”

Viewed against this backdrop, even the stringent requirements of the FCA seem manageable. “Even though it is becoming highly professionalised” says Jacob, “this industry is less formal than what I’m used to. All my experience has been with large organisations with strict process rules – at Air Products, for example, the training and compliance capability was astounding.” “There was an awful lot of red tape, but it was all very well managed – that environment teaches you a lot about the right way to do things, and about how to design a solution in small, manageable steps.” A lot of the compliance challenges faced by the collections industry, in his opinion, are down to the “leftovers” from the front end of the creditor world, and to the relative lack of investment from major lenders in collections processes compared to functions such as marketing or sales. One area in which he sees potential for problems to arise as a result of poor process is mis-tracing. “Mis-traces have historically been quite a big deal, but now with the increased use of bulk data and fuzzy matching, more is bound to occur” he says. “In any business that is serious about putting a fair customer outcome at the centre of its processes, this must be addressed.”

Foreign exchange In terms of structure, Qualco UK is separate from Athens-based Qualco S.A., which is its majority stakeholder. While there is an equity relationship between the two businesses, Qualco UK has completely autonomous management. Nevertheless, there is an exchange of information between the two – indeed, Qualco UK has found it has had plenty to teach its Greek parent about the servicing of portfolios. As a long-term consequence of the Greek financial system’s bailout, banks will have to sell assets, including books of consumer debt. Given its recent involvement in UK debt sale, Qualco should be well placed to help them out. There is a return of information to the UK entity, too – Qualco’s presence in Europe, where it has operations in 16 countries, means it is well-placed to aid with the expansion of UK debt purchasers into less mature European markets. As that trend progresses, says Jacob, there will be plenty of work to do – “the FCA would have quite a shock, looking at some of the European portfolios.” When the time comes for more UK purchasers to start looking at those portfolios, it seems likely Qualco will provide a useful partner to help them through the process. ●
