ARC Real Estate, global and independent info-provider, has successfully finalized the last operation of the year 2020 in the NPL industry by closing the deal with Cassa di Risparmio di Savigliano to purchase a NPL portfolio (with mixed positions, secured and usecured) with a GBV of around € 6 mln.

The company continues to grow and reinforces its position as a professional partner able to present an end-to-end offer, playing the role of originator during the portfolios selection phase, advisor during the valuation one, and servicer for the debt collection process. The current delicate economic situation did not restrain ARC's work, which, as always, has demonstrated great resiliency and dynamism in facing different events.

In view of the financial crisis and the exponential growth of the NPL market, ARC's strategy turned out to be forward-looking, diversifying the services offered first in the collateral valuation industry, and then in the distressed credit one. The previous specialization in activities ancillary to the correct valuation of a NPL portfolio represents the true expertise of the company. The combination of legal and real estate know-how allowed ARC to establish itself as a one-stop shop, a reference point for small players in the market, with a comprehensive offer for all the necessary services to support our clients during the entire process.
