Cabot has credit management expertise with a number of lenders (including consumer financing, telecoms operators, retail traders, utility operators and governments ) and investment categories (including consumer collateral, SME debts and high quality accounts).
Since Cabot was established in 1998 until 30 June 2017, the company has spent a £2 billion sum on the purchase of over 21 billion in nominal value of the acquired credit portfolio and £2.9 billion in accumulated cash from the acquired credit portfolio. At 30 June 2017, Cabot's 120-month estimate of residual collection was £2.2 billion and its 180-month estimate of residual collection was £2.5 billion.
