Debt Resolve, Inc. (OTCBB: DRSV) announced today that the company and Finance 500 of Newport Beach, CA have signed a joint marketing agreement to market the DebtResolve™ system to Finance 500′s bank clients. Finance 500 is one of the leading underwriters of brokered deposits in the United States, serving more than 1,600 banks and providing more than $22 Billion in financing for their bank clients in 2009.
Under the terms of the agreement, Debt Resolve and Finance 500 will work together to market the company’s debt resolution solutions to these banks for use with their customers. The system is designed to deliver the best possible experience for those consumers who wish to resolve their outstanding debt issues with their creditors and allows them to do this in a dignified manner in the privacy of their own home.
The benefit for the banking clients of Finance 500 who use the DebtResolve™ system is that it provides the channel with the lowest marginal cost of collection, increases portfolio yields and recovers more per account than banks recover through traditional methods. The system also gives banks an additional way to contact their customers (via the Internet, which is quickly becoming the preferred method of contact for consumers in the United States) while being perceived as a less threatening channel than demand letters or collection calls.
Commenting on the agreement, David Rainey, President and Interim CEO of Debt Resolve, stated, "The completion of this agreement is an important step in accelerating our penetration of the banking sector. Our patented, proprietary tools enable creditors to contact their customers more efficiently and collect more outstanding debt at a significantly lower cost. In addition, the creditors will be certain of compliance with all federal and state regulations in relation to fair credit practices, and as a result they will enjoy higher levels of customer satisfaction and retention."
