Debt Collection: Improved Reporting Needed on Billions of Dollars in DelinquentDebt and Agency Collection Performance

摘要

This report specifically focuses on (1) reported governmentwide data on creditreceivables and delinquencies for federally managed loans, (2) the status of efforts at four major credit agencies to resolve delinquencies, (3) the dollars collected using various legislatively established collection tools, and (4) ways debt collection reporting can be enhanced to evaluate progress in collecting debt, and thereby assess agency efforts to meet the mandates of the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996.
