Fees and Outcomes: Investing in Effective Debt Recovery

Our fee structure for debt recovery services for financial institutions in Kenya is competitive and performance-oriented. We typically operate on a combination of a reasonable base fee (e.g., KES 15,000 - 30,000 per file) and a success fee, which is a percentage of the amount recovered (commonly 10-20% of recovered principal, varying with complexity). This ensures our interests are aligned with yours – achieving successful recovery. While outcomes vary, our proven track record demonstrates our ability to recover a significant percentage of outstanding debts for our clients operating in Nairobi and across Kenya.
