The credit management services industry is under constant development. As the pandemic has advanced the overall digitalisation in society, this has urged the need for adaption of the operational setup of service providers to remain relevant. Intrum has therefore identified the need to transform and simplify the operating model to realise its full potential of scalability and efficiency in order to enhance competitiveness and enable further organic growth. That is why Intrum today presents the ONE Intrum transformation program.
"Through the ONE Intrum transformation program, we will create a new, simple, digital and scalable operating model, allowing for an enhanced and relevant offer adapted to the current and future needs of our clients, customers and society as a whole. ONE Intrum will make growth highly accretive thanks to the scalable operating model with low marginal costs, with this benefit being applicable across all segments. With that in place, Intrum will be ideally positioned to capture the significant opportunities in both servicing and investing we currently expect" says
ONE Intrum - as Local as needed, as Global as possible
By engaging in a fundamental overhaul of the delivery model, ONE Intrum will take the company from multi-local to truly global. This entails establishing a new core operating model and implementing a global digital end-to-end collection process. Through better allocation of resources along the lifecycle of a claim, Intrum will be able to improve efficiency significantly whilst also improving client and customer satisfaction.
As part of ONE Intrum, Intrum's technology architecture will be transformed. This includes leveraging one common collection system, allowing for fully digitised end-to-end processes where the organisation utilises unified data output from standard processes. The increased digitalisation will ensure optimal utilisation of the company's size and resources, for example by strengthening online self-service channels, whilst allowing for a more relevant offering in line with market demand. Furthermore, Intrum will implement a new global master data model to ensure increased productivity. One high-performance data hub leveraging Intrum's vast data set will enable faster and deeper analysis of performance, embedding analytics and machine learning in the collection process.
Building on its leading position and ONE Intrum, the company has the ultimate objective to strengthen its long-term competitive advantages. The new operating model will be characterised by a global system and infrastructure with local expert-driven solutions, allowing the company to fully build on its scale. Simultaneously, the efficiency gains from ONE Intrum will drive margin improvement in the existing business, creating substantial leverage as markets recover in the wake of Covid-19. This, combined with the improved scalability, will enable organic growth while maintaining attractive returns going forward. As a result of this, the company has decided to update its financial targets.

Comparing the net indebtedness to a cash flow metric is the most relevant way to assess Intrum's debt capacity. Improving returns enable deleveraging within 2022 target range, while continuing to selectively invest in growth.
