Fairness in Operation

Debt Fairly Collected
CDER Group developed the Fairness Framework to embed fairness into all of our engagements with clients, customers (debtors), stakeholders and our people and to set a new standard for responsible and high quality collections and enforcement.

Our Edge system’s unique “single customer view” architecture, combined with advanced analysis and reporting tools, allows us to tailor our collection approach for each individual, with faster engagement, higher response rates and fairer resolutions.
