LONDON, 17 April, 2020 — Global analytics software provider FICO is pleased to announce that Bruce Curry, Vice President of Collections and Recovery in EMEA, has just been recognized as a leading light in the credit industry in this year’s Credit 500 Hall of Fame.

The Credit 500 Hall of Fame, published annually by Credit Strategy, recognises and champions leaders who have made a measurable difference to the industry.

Curry works with FICO clients across Europe, the Middle East and Africa to improve their performance in collections and recovery. He has worked directly with dozens of businesses in 27 countries across EMEA and APAC. Before joining FICO, he held successive senior operational management positions over 16 years with Barclays vehicle asset finance (Dial Contracts), Marks and Spencer Financial Services and Royal Bank of Scotland Cards.

Curry has appeared in previous Credit Halls of Fame.

“Bruce is recognised as an absolute leader in collections and recovery across Europe, the Middle East and Africa,” said Steve Hadaway, vice president and general manager of FICO in EMEA. “Our customers turn to him for advice and best practices, because he brings great practical knowledge as well as real insights into how technology can advance their operations. At a time like this, when collections shops are hit harder than ever due to the COVID-19 crisis, it’s great to see the Credit 500 Hall of Fame acknowledge the work he’s doing to help banks, telcos, fintechs and debt collection agencies cope with vulnerable and debt-stressed customers.”

Bruce Curry will be discussing collections strategies in the COVID-19 pandemic as part of the FICO Virtual Event: Building Resiliency —Adapting to the Challenges of Today. For access to all the sessions in this series, register here.
