Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

A relatively prudent business model allows for better countercyclical investment and cash collections, which helps fund more purchases and issue more loans. This also supports continued funding and prevents excessive potential value destruction.

Bears

Competition for PDLs may be stronger moving forward, with larger peers having the ability to persistently outbid Credit Corp for better-quality bad debts, and competition from credit card alternatives for consumers.

Company Profile

Credit Corp operates in the distressed consumer debt market. In its core business, it acquires purchased debt ledgers, or PDLs, in Australia and is expanding this business globally by buying PDLs in the United States. These PDLs consist of unsecured debt that are at least six months in arrears and have already been through a collection process. Since 2012, Credit Corp also diversified its business into providing consumer credit to customers who are unable to gain access to credit from primary sources such as banks because of a poor credit history. Its consumer credit business is gaining scale but is also subject to increased regulatory scrutiny.
