Our Debt Collection Services in Africa
At DEBISOL GROUP, our approach to debt collection in Africa is comprehensive and deeply rooted in local expertise. We prioritize amicable solutions, leveraging our network of local agents and partners to facilitate negotiations and maintain business relationships. When amicable efforts are exhausted, we seamlessly transition to judicial proceedings, with direct representation by specialized local law firms who navigate the complexities of African legal systems.
Beyond traditional collection, our services extend to post-judgment enforcement, multi-jurisdictional recovery, debt purchase, and legal assistance for foreign judgments and arbitral awards. We ensure transparency and direct communication at every step, making us your trusted partner for effective and ethically sound debt recovery across the continent.
Our preferred method to recover debts in Africa is through amicable negotiations: Personalized contact with debtors via local agents or partner debt collection companies present in each African country. Telephone follow-ups, email reminders, and physical visits by our local teams. Negotiation strategies tailored to the debtor's profile, financial situation, and local business context. This approach saves time and legal fees while preserving the possibility of future collaboration with the debtor.
If amicable collection fails, DEBISOL initiates judicial proceedings directly through its network of local African law firms: Filing lawsuits in competent local courts. Representation by specialized local lawyers. Full management and monitoring of legal proceedings. No intermediaries involved: you keep full visibility and control while your file is handled directly by a local legal expert familiar with African legal systems.
A court decision must be enforced to be effective. Our services include: Exequatur and legalization of foreign judgments for enforcement in African jurisdictions. Debtor asset investigations and asset seizure coordination. Direct cooperation with local enforcement officers and bailiffs. Ongoing monitoring until full debt repayment.
Many creditors face debtors operating across multiple African countries or between Africa and other continents. DEBISOL manages multi-jurisdictional debt recovery cases by: Coordinating local actions in each African country. Ensuring compliance with local laws and international regulations. Providing a single point of contact for centralized file management.
For companies looking to offload risk: Purchase of non-performing debt portfolios in Africa. Tailored debt repurchase programs according to your financial objectives. We specialize in sectors such as trade, banking, mining, and services.
We assist international clients in: Homologating foreign court judgments so they are enforceable in African jurisdictions. Managing administrative, legal, and procedural requirements locally. This is essential for companies with debts owed by African debtors based on foreign court decisions.
DEBISOL provides full support for: Recognition and enforcement of international arbitral awards in African countries. Ensuring execution of obligations under international commercial law.
In African debt collection, clarity is vital: Certified legal document translation adapted to local African languages. Intercultural negotiation support to bridge linguistic and cultural gaps during the recovery process.
