The Situation
Protect performance while preserving relationships.
The same person behind on a card may still hold a deposit account, HELOC, or auto loan. Collections that damage that broader relationship cost more than the balance recovers, and it's happening under more regulatory scrutiny than before. The best option is early intervention, but accounts that roll still need compassion and the right options. In collections and recovery, timing matters as much as tone.
How Equabli Fits
One system, from early warning to write-off
1. Spot the risk early
EQ Engine flags rising risk before charge-off and segments accounts by net expected value, not just days past due, with scoring that's explainable enough to hold up when an examiner asks how a decision was made.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does explainable scoring matter?
EQ Engine's net-expected-value segmentation is built to be explainable rather than a black box, so risk and compliance teams can show examiners exactly which factors drove a given score and why an account was prioritized the way it was. That transparency helps banks defend early-risk and collections decisions when examiners ask for justification, with a documented rationale to point to across the delinquency lifecycle.
How can banks stay Reg F compliant when outsourcing accounts to outside agencies or law firms?
EQ Collect maintains a network-wide compliance and audit trail across every agency and law firm handling post-charge-off placements, so banks have one system of record for how outsourced accounts were contacted and handled instead of reconciling compliance evidence agency by agency.
Can banks reach delinquent borrowers digitally before charge-off without adding compliance risk?
EQ Engage supports branded, digital-first outreach that adjusts to location-specific requirements, so messaging can go out earlier in the delinquency cycle while staying within applicable compliance guardrails. Paired with EQ Engine's early risk identification, creditors can prioritize and contact at-risk borrowers before charge-off rather than waiting until an account is placed with an outside collector.
