Drive business performance and reduce customer stress by leveraging the potential of
debt sale
We provide an opportunity to immediately strengthen your business and customers’ position through debt sale.
We know that maintaining an ideal cashflow is critical for business sustainability and expansion, and to ensure job stability in tough conditions. We offer an expedient cash injection solution by purchasing under-performing debt at Net Present Value.
Managing late-stage or non-performing portfolios is costly, due to the time and expense of handling internal departments, external debt collectors, and attorneys. Debt disposal frees you up to focus on more productive early-stage collections.
Nimble prioritizes fair assistance for customers once we’ve purchased a debt portfolio. We are committed to help people settle their account in the most manageable way for them, and to maintain a positive credit history.

The typical debt sale process
Pricing varies depending on the type of debt (secured vs unsecured), its age and whether it is cash generative.
Pricing debt portfolios appropriately requires constructive and open engagement especially when transacting for the first time.
The historic collection yield in the most recent 36 month period is often indicative of its future value.
Discounted cash flow methodology is typically used to price NPL’s.
Debt sales range across the collections lifecycle from early-stage to post-write-off and includes unsecured and secured portfolios.
The value of each portfolio is informed by a number of key considerations, that together determine the final pricing.
The most salient considerations are:
Recent payment behaviour
Bureau profiles
Security realised/attached
Legal and regulatory compliance issues
Selling debt and debt collection are subject to various laws and regulations, and must be done in compliance with these rules.
Disputes and complaints
Debtors may dispute the validity or accuracy of the debts being collected.
Reputation and public relations
Selling debt portfolios to aggressive or unethical debt collectors can damage the reputation of the original creditor or company involved in the transaction.
Data security and privacy risks
Debt portfolios contain sensitive personal and financial information about individuals.
Nimble is registered with a number of regulatory bodies including the National Credit Regulator and Council for Debt Collectors. Having concluded a large number of transactions across Sub-Saharan Africa, we can advise new sellers of the legal requirements and type of debt that can be sold.
Disputes and complaints are addressed through a dedicated team and pro-active use of our voice recognition software. We build strong working relationships with sellers to ensure all queries are dealt with accurately and completely.
We ensure that all laws and regulations are adhered to through rigorous training of staff as well as in-depth monitoring of our processes and interactions with debtors. We use voice-recognition software to record and review all calls ensuring customers are treated fairly.
Nimble employs encryption, firewalls, secure storage systems and access controls to safeguard sensitive data. Our security measures are regularly updated to stay ahead of emerging threats and to comply with applicable data protection regulations.
“Our goal is to help turn financial challenges into growth, by easing business burdens, expediting cashflow, and enabling debtors to regain financial stability and peace of mind.”

Nimble Group has taken the initiative to establish an Early Childhood Development Centre, which began operating in January 2019 in Woodstock, Cape Town. The centre operates under the guidance of Peak child, and while accessible to the public, primarily serves as a subsidized preschool for the children of Nimble staff.
Peak Child aims to equip children with the best possible foundation for life by providing affordable, high-quality preschools in close proximity to workplaces, catering to the needs of emerging middle-class parents. Since its inception, Peak Child has focused on collaborating with socially responsible employers to support their staff beyond conventional employee benefits.
Peak Child offers comprehensive programmes for children aged 3 months to 5 years. Through partnerships with prominent educational experts and local primary schools they ensure that children transitioning from Peak Child are socially, academically, and physically prepared for admission to any of Cape Town’s leading primary schools. Peak Child currently operates three schools, including Peak Child Nimble.
Nimble has made a significant investment in this project, with plans to replicate this model close to its Johannesburg offices.
The Altius Et Latius Trust is a school education initiative aimed at providing bursaries to historically disadvantaged students, enabling their attendance at top schools in Cape Town.
The primary goal of the trust is to promote equitable access to high-quality public education, fostering lasting transformation. Their objective is to support fifty talented learners in gaining admission to high-performing schools.
Nimble Group continually makes a substantial impact on this crucial initiative by providing essential resources for additional student support, such as tutoring, funding for school events or excursions, sporting equipment and more.
