Enterprise Investors to invest in prospering debt collection agency

According to unofficial information, Enterprise Investors (EI) will invest around zł. 12 million to acquire a minority stake in Kruk Systemy Inkaso (KSI), a debt collection agency. Founded three years ago, the company collects bad debts from 11 banks, several telecommunications firms and cable companies. KSI recorded revenues of around zł. 20 million, and posted an operational profit of almost zł. 11 million last year. "We consider this market to be an attractive one. The economic situation and the fact that a growing number of companies and individuals have decided to take credits, will make the liability trade market a growing one," said EI spokeswoman Iwona Drabot.
