Overview

Non-performing asset (NPA) solutions help banks and financial institutions clean up stressed loan books, recover value and trade distressed debt. Matchpoint advises lenders and institutions on NPA and NPL portfolios: assessment and stratification, recovery and resolution strategy, and the sale or secondary trading of distressed loan portfolios to specialist investors and asset-reconstruction buyers. This is the institution-side counterpart to our NPL and loan-portfolio financing, where we can advise on and arrange acquisition financing for investors, subject to lender assessment, applicable requirements and a written engagement.

As part of our Debt practice, Matchpoint Partners has originated and led $2+ billion of transactions across four continents, and every debt mandate is led by a partner, from first call to close.

The central mandate decision. Choose between cure, restructuring, refinancing, enforcement or sale after establishing the realistic enterprise and collateral value. The solution should maximise risk-adjusted recovery within an evidenced timetable.

What capital providers or counterparties will test

Account conduct, borrower cash flow, security perfection, collateral condition, guarantees, legal stage, competing creditors, settlement proposals, management credibility and expected recovery costs.

How the mandate is structured

The route may combine consensual restructuring, new money, one-time settlement, asset sale, change of control or portfolio transfer. Decision rights and recovery waterfalls must be explicit.

Execution priorities

Segment the exposure by viable recovery route, define minimum acceptable outcomes and coordinate borrower, legal, valuation and potential-investor workstreams through one case plan.

Non-Performing Asset (NPA) Solutions — frequently asked questions

NPA solutions can support a bank or financial institution in assessing stressed and non-performing loans, planning recovery and resolution, and evaluating a sale or transfer to specialist investors.
