Istanbul, Turkey, 2 October 2013 — Experian®, the leading global information services company, today announced that Avea - the sole GSM 1800 mobile operator of Turkey- has implemented Experian’s PowerCurve™ Strategy Management for Collections software to decrease credit risk and improve its collections performance.

PowerCurve™ Strategy Management tightly links strategy design and execution to achieve quick, painless deployments and unmatched performance monitoring. This complete loop architecture not only accelerates test-and-learn cycles but also helps decisioning strategies adapt more quickly to take advantage of opportunities.

PowerCurve™ Strategy Management segments poor-paying customers automatically and ensures more time is focused on those with a higher propensity to pay; this results in both increased customer satisfaction and revenues. In addition to this, debt not paid deactivation ratio also decreases. Overall, bad debts decrease while revenue increases.

Serdar Gokhan Parlakdag, Credit Risk Manager, Avea, comments: “PowerCurve™ Strategy Management for Collections solution will allow us develop better collections strategies. We will have the ability to tailor different treatments to our poor-paying customers, increase customer satisfaction whilst also improving our collections effectiveness.”

Cenker Ozhelvaci, Market President, Experian Balkans, Turkey & Middle East, comments: “We are confident that with the implementation of this project, Avea will not only meet this project’s key success factors but will also gain a flexible platform for their future decision management activities.”
