Banca Ifis is the sixth most important operator , with 23,6 billion Euro in assets under management and leads the
unsecured bad loans segment. Having been operating on the market since 2011, it was one of the very first
companies to enter the non-performing loans market.
It operates as leading investor and owns one of the very best servicers operating nationwide, with platforms for managing
the collection of its own debt and that on behalf of third parties. Its main competitive advantage stems precisely from the
combination of capacity to purchase and manage Npl portfolios and a proprietary database numbering more than 1,4
million debtors.
