INTERNATIONAL DEBT COLLECTION

Debt collection worldwide

Relying on many long years of experience, our local experts guarantee the efficient collection of your debts. Sekundi can offer amicable debt collection as well as disputed debt collection by means of legal action.

An efficient debt collection strategy aims to recover payment quickly and at the lowest possible cost. The priority is to resolve the case during the extrajudicial phase, avoiding court proceedings whenever possible, as legal actions can be lengthy and expensive.

Sekundi makes it point of honour to treat debtors fairly, even if they themselves have failed to honour the payment of invoices, in order not to endanger the commercial relationship that you cultivate with your clients.

What do we do to collect debt in Chile?

What are the appropriate legal procedures to collect outstanding debts in Chile ?

Debt collection in Latin America generally involves two stages: extrajudicial and judicial collection. The extrajudicial phase includes collection letters, phone calls, and—depending on the country—optional conciliation processes (e.g., in Peru or Argentina). If that fails, the case can proceed to judicial enforcement through local courts.

Data helps identify which collection methods work best in each country, allowing us to adapt strategies and increase success rates.

How do you manage relationships with international debtors ?

International distance has little impact today thanks to effective communication tools. The key is to clearly inform the debtor that, regardless of their location, legal action will be taken locally if the debt is not paid.

What are the costs and fees associated with debt collection?

Costs depend on the stage of the collection. In the extrajudicial phase, fees are minimal and generally limited to Dante’s service charges. If the case moves to the judicial phase, additional costs may apply—such as court fees, document legalization, translations, or coordination with local lawyers abroad if needed.

Sekundi has one tarif for all of Europe, CIS countries, NEMA region, most countries in Africa, North America and parts of South America.

In those countries the tariff is based on a no cure no pay principle and the tariff is 15%.

So you only pay when we are successful and then you pay 15% over the cashed in amount.

In the other countries where we can help you we can make you an offer as soon as you ask us to recover a debt.

The no cure no pay principle is applicable to the aimicable phase of the file.

If we have to go legal, what will only be done after the client gives his ok, there wil be costs involved; These costs will be transpartant and known to you before the start of a legal procedure.

Frequently ask questions

How can I measure the performance of my debt collection strategies?

Performance can be measured using two key indicators: (i) the number of successful collections compared to total cases, and (ii) the total amount recovered compared to the total amount claimed.

How can I manage the risks associated with debt collection?

The best way to manage debt collection risks is through strong, enforceable contracts. When preventive legal measures are in place, as contracts, debtors are much less likely to default.

There are various tools available to automate debt collection, but at Dante we prefer to handle each case personally. We believe that direct, tailored communication with the debtor—using the right tone and level of pressure—significantly increases the chances of recovery.
