Secondary NPL market very established in Greece with several sizeable transactions having taken place in the last six months (supporting HAPS performance as well as financial performance of doValue Greece1)
A similar market is expected to develop also in Italy and in Spain (considering that the bulk of NPEs are today on investors' balance sheets)
•Note:
•1) doValue Greece books a collection / disposal fee upfront (upon sale of portfolio) and, in case it maintains the servicing contract post sale, keeps its ordinary collection activity on behalf of the new owner (charging customary fees)

A growing medium term pipeline



Continuing to push the boundaries of credit management
