Credit, Collections & Insolvency News
Credit Connect has announced the shortlist of companies and partnerships for this year’s ninth annual Credit & Collections Technology Awards.
The finalists for this year’s awards consist of 112 entrants (whittled down from nearly 130 entries) from over 60 companies on the shortlist. There are numerous 10-partner entries in the running to win across the 21 categories.
Credit Connect’s panel of judges is chosen for their industry background, providing a view across a variety of the credit and collections sectors. The finalists have been decided by a panel of esteemed, experienced industry leaders using a unique judging process.
The Awards pride themselves on a transparent judging process that allows all entrants to request an Insight Performance report post-event to review their performance.
The Credit & Collections Technology Awards were launched in 2017 to highlight the success of companies and individuals who lead the way in enhancing credit, lending and collections best practices. All awards are on an entry basis, whereby companies can nominate themselves or enter as part of a partnership. The awards are an opportunity to assess the people and companies that focus on customer experience and provide a benchmark in industry best practices.
Colin White, Founding Director at Credit Connect, said, “I’m excited to announce the year’s shortlist. Last year’s awards ceremony was a great event, so we are looking forward to welcoming everyone to Manchester for the ninth year of these unique awards.
“It is great to see the awards have grabbed attention, with several new entries, notably from lenders and creditors, and I look forward to seeing many new faces at this year’s event.
“I would like to thank the judges for working their way through the entries to date and creating this year’s shortlist. Becoming a finalist is an incredible achievement in itself, with so much market competition.
“The awards will be the pinnacle of our Autumn Events series, which also includes the Commercial Credit & Collections Conference and Credit & Collections Think Tank. I’m also looking forward to unveiling the first-ever 2026 Technology Industry Leaders List at the new pre-event Industry Leaders Networking Dinner. The awards and the Industry Leaders list aim to recognise the leaders driving industry change in the credit and collections sector.”
