Cabot Credit Management is one of Encore’s two primary operating units, which has legally separate funding structures. Encore has initiated a process to combine the two balance sheets into a unified funding structure.
In this configuration, Encore would become the parent of a restricted group consisting of all subsidiaries of Encore against which all covenant performance would be measured.
Encore has said that combining the two companies will fully leverage the combined size and maximise financial flexibility through a global borrowing base and enhanced access to capital markets.
