Electronic Bankruptcy Notification & Portfolio Monitoring
Electronic
Bankruptcy Notification (EBN) is being implemented by the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court system through its Electronic Noticing Center. To deliver EBN
to our clients CBS developed software and processes to enable our
clients to receive information on bankruptcy cases more quickly than
ever before: case information is transmitted daily to clients in a
format that permits immediate coding of accounts.
With
EBN our clients are advised daily of their new filings often ten days
before paper notices would normally arrive. This eliminates further
internal and external collection activities and eliminates associated
expenses. EBN also helps prevent potential stay violations and missed
bar dates, resulting in lower costs and increased recovery. Dismissals
and discharges are also reported electronically.
CBS
offers clients the option of CBS processing the daily file and directly
coding the appropriate accounts. We then immediately begin the Proof
of Claim and other filing/recovery activities.
PORTFOLIO MONITORING
CBS can review the entire file of a client’s accounts and provide
daily reports of those accounts involved in new bankruptcy filings,
including account number. This allows for significant cost savings
in that expensive collection efforts cease immediately and recovery
efforts begin much earlier. Overall, the result is greater productivity,
reduced expenses and a higher rate of recovery.
