East-West Debt is a privately owned company established in 1996. Over the past 12 years, we have managed claims portfolios in excess of 400 million USD.
East-West Debt head office is based in Antwerp, Belgium and has supporting offices in the United Kingdom, Holland, Poland, Russia and Turkey. We also utilize and manage an extensive network of agents and lawyers worldwide.
Our success is based on our interdisciplinary approach to debt recovery. This is the reason we employ a team of professionals with a variety of different backgrounds. Our team consists of lawyers specialised in international litigation and enforcement, (ex) bankers and researchers.
Because of the vast amount of knowledge and experience of the legal, economical and political structure of political risk countries, our employees are able to asses each claim on its merits and devise a comprehensive approach to successfully recover our clients´ claims.
We pride ourselves on our success rate especially on the most difficult countries such as, for example, Iraq or Iran where we have been extremely effective in our recovery efforts over the last years. East-West Debt will accept claims that most companies reject and tries to maximise the worth of each claim, even if these claims have been unpaid for many years.
