What we do

Coordinated support across the life of a distressed credit file

We work alongside lenders, servicers, and borrowers to keep distressed credit files organised, documented, and moving toward a resolution that both parties understand.

Portfolio Assessment

Reviewing loan documentation, payment history, and current status to build an accurate picture of each file.

Restructuring Coordination

Mapping out realistic repayment or restructuring options for discussion between lender and borrower.

Credit Servicing Support

Administering correspondence, records, and scheduling so nothing in a file gets lost or delayed.

Compliance & Reporting

Keeping documentation aligned with applicable German and EU credit servicing requirements.

How a file moves forward

Our four-stage servicing pathway

Every distressed file we support moves through the same sequence, so lenders and borrowers always know what stage a case is at and what happens next.

01

Intake & Review

We collect the loan agreement, payment ledger, and any prior correspondence, then confirm the current status of the account.

Typically week 1
02

Structuring

Possible repayment or restructuring paths are drafted for review, taking into account the borrower's disclosed circumstances.

Typically weeks 2–4
03

Agreement

Once both parties agree on a path forward, we help formalise the arrangement in writing and confirm next steps.

Typically week 5
04

Monitoring

The file is monitored against the agreed schedule, with periodic reporting back to the lender and borrower.

Documentation, plainly explained

We keep every file organised and every term easy to follow

Distressed credit files often arrive scattered across letters, spreadsheets, and phone notes. We consolidate everything into a single, clearly labelled record, and explain each clause in plain language before any decision is made.

Our summaries are written for people, not just for compliance departments — so borrowers understand exactly what a restructuring proposal means for their monthly obligations.

Coordination between parties

A neutral point of contact between lender and borrower

Nova Fides GmbH acts as the coordination point during a restructuring discussion, scheduling calls, circulating updated terms, and keeping a written record that both sides can refer back to.

We do not make lending decisions ourselves; we support the parties who do, and keep the process transparent throughout.
