Backup Servicing

HiTO, as a Backup Servicer, takes over key functions (mainly collections and loan administration) for assets or accounts receivable portfolios. HiTO receives and analyzes portfolio data regularly, preparing to take over primary servicer duties in case of a triggering event (such as the default of existing servicer or insolvency of the servicer/originator).

The functions of a Backup Servicer can be classified into three temperatures depending on the activities to perform and the level of Backup required for the portfolio:

  • Cold Backup Servicer: Portfolio data storage originated by the Primary Servicer on independent and periodically updated systems. Loan and repayment data is updated infrequently, and it may take several months for the Backup servicer to take over servicing duties from the primary servicer.
  • Warm Backup Servicer: Portfolio data processing/payment application by HiTO on independent and updated systems according to the amortization schedule payment. Monthly reports on cash flow validation and bank reconciliation. It may take 3-4 months for the Backup servicer to take over servicing duties from the primary servicer.
  • Hot Backup Servicer: Receive, monitor, and validate the progress of strategic collection actions. Operational transfer of functions plan. HiTO can take over servicing duties from the primary servicer briefly.
