Intrum and Cerberus will seek to jointly invest up to EUR 1bn annually depending on market conditions. Cerberus will provide 70% of the capital and Intrum will provide 30%, with Intrum's level of investment subject to downward adjustment under certain conditions. The agreement covers all countries within Intrum’s geographical footprint over the next three years for consumer unsecured portfolios.

Under the terms of the agreement, both parties will originate, jointly review and agree on which investments to make.

Intrum and Cerberus have also agreed to exclusively negotiate final definitive documentation, which is expected to be completed by YE2024. Intrum and Cerberus have already begun pursuing joint investments and will do so concurrent with the finalisation of definitive documentation.

Cerberus is a global leader in alternative investments, one of the largest NPL investors globally and is one of Intrum’s largest clients. Earlier this month, Intrum announced the completion of a sale to affiliates of Cerberus of a material portion of its back book investment portfolio, raising net proceeds of SEK 7.2 billion, which will be used in full to reduce debt, with Intrum retaining a minimum 5-year exclusive agreement to retain the servicing of that portfolio.

Servicing income and additional fees
Intrum is expected to service nearly all investments under the agreement, with selected exceptions, and will be paid market-based servicing fees.

In addition to the servicing fees, and in line with Intrum’s strategy set out in its September 2023 Capital Markets Day, Intrum will also earn additional fees, comprised of execution, portfolio management and performance fees.

Andrés Rubio, President & Chief Executive Officer, Intrum:
“This partnership is an important milestone in the delivery of our capital light strategy. It enables Intrum to scale our investment activity without increasing our debt, while benefiting from incremental servicing revenues. The additional fees mark an important step towards establishing Intrum as a leading investment manager in consumer credit, in line with the strategy set out at our Capital Markets Day. We are delighted to once again combine our expertise with a valued investor like Cerberus to further solidify our market-leading position and deliver on long term, sustainable growth”.
