RMAI Celebrates a Decade of Its National Certification Program

SACRMENTO, Calif. --  The RMAI Certification Council announces the adoption of version 10.0 of the Receivables Management Certification Program (RMCP) after a seven-month development and review process. Several significant enhancements were added to the program in version 10.0, including requiring Certified Businesses to:

• Maintain a cyber-crime insurance policy.
• Maintain a policy which prevents discriminatory collection practices.
• Notate consumer communication restrictions and transmit those restrictions when appropriate.
• Obtain specific data and documents when purchasing or selling installment loans (fintech and traditional).

“As we launch version 10.0 of our national certification program, its humbling to see how far RMAI has come in the development of uniform standards of best practice for the receivables management industry,” said Adam Parks, President of the Receivables Management Association International (RMAI).

“As we prepare for our second decade of advancing comprehensive and uniform standards of best practice, RMAI’s focus will remain on the consumers we protect and the industry we proudly serve. The statistics demonstrate the value RMAI certification brings to both audiences as we continue to see reduced complaints and litigation against RMAI certified businesses.”
