Lowell

To mark #TalkMoneyWeek, we shared our top tips on how to start a conversation about finances with our partners over at MyBnk. Talking about your finances is a great #DoOneThing to help improve your financial wellbeing. See our suggestions below 👇

This week is #TalkMoneyWeek, and 2024’s theme is ‘Do One Thing’. Talk Money week is designed to help people have more open conversations about their money, removing the stigma all year round.

Our DEI networks are incredibly important to us here at Lowell in bringing Colleagues together to spark debate and discussion around conversations that matter. To mark Black History Month, our Culture Network organised for former Deputy Director for Education at Leeds City Council Shaheen Myers to come in and talk to us about a whole load of topics including unconscious bias, her own experiences, but most importantly, asking the room what it means to belong. We had a fantastic afternoon & the Culture Network hopes to take the conversation forward, looking at ways to keep differences in Culture part of the ongoing agenda across the business. #BlackHistoryMonth24

We’re #hiring a new Lowell Open Day - Contact Centre in Leeds, England. Apply today or share this post with your network.

We are pleased to announce that BaFin has granted our company Proceed Credit & Collections Services GmbH their permission to perform credit services according to the German secondary credit market act! The requirements for BaFin authorisation include a reliable business organisation and internal control mechanisms that guarantee appropriate compliance and, in particular, the protection of borrowers' rights. At Lowell, we have processes that have been tried and tested over many years and which take the interests of our clients and the rights of consumers into account in a balanced manner. We take an ethical approach to debt management and always endeavour to find the most appropriate, sustainable and fair solution, taking into account a consumer's individual situation. Our aim is to develop viable solutions for our clients and consumers when dealing with outstanding receivables. As a credit service provider that processes credit claims for buyers of loan portfolios on the secondary market, we are now subject to supervision by BaFin in Germany. At Lowell, we support the fact that companies involved in receivables management must meet strict requirements. The BaFin permission confirms our quality standards. This success would not have been possible without the support of the BKS | Bundesvereinigung Kreditankauf und Servicing e.V. and the BDIU | Bundesverband Deutscher Inkasso-Unternehmen e.V., who, in addition to representing our interests in the legislative process, have accompanied us through the authorisation process with a variety of helpful tips and exchange formats, for which we are very grateful. We would also like to thank our Lowell colleagues for their tireless efforts in the process. #Lowell #creditmanagement  #kreditzweitmarktgesetz BKS: https://lnkd.in/ddu2gFQf BDIU: https://lnkd.in/d_5nmFiU
