Debt sale approval is a process that evaluates and authorizes the sale of receivables or debt portfolios to third-party buyers, ensuring appropriate valuation, regulatory compliance, and risk management. In Moxo, debt sale workflows coordinate across credit, finance, legal, and leadership teams, with AI agents analyzing portfolio data while humans make authorization decisions.

Step by step process

Your version of this process may vary based on roles, systems, data, and approval paths. Moxo's flow builder can be configured with AI agents, conditional branching, dynamic data references, and sophisticated logic to match how your organization runs this workflow. The steps below illustrate one example.

Portfolio identification

The process begins when a debt portfolio is identified for potential sale based on age, collectibility, or strategic factors. Portfolio characteristics are documented including balances, account types, and delinquency status. AI agents may analyze portfolio data and suggest optimal timing.

Valuation analysis

Finance conducts valuation analysis considering expected recovery rates, carrying costs, and market conditions. The analysis establishes floor pricing and expected proceeds. Historical sale performance informs valuation assumptions.

Buyer qualification and bidding

Potential buyers are evaluated for compliance track record, financial capacity, and operational capability. Qualified buyers receive portfolio information and submit bids. The bidding process ensures competitive pricing.

Legal and compliance review

Legal reviews the proposed sale agreement, representations, and warranties. Compliance evaluates buyer practices against regulatory requirements and company standards. Issues are negotiated before proceeding.

Authorization and execution

Based on transaction size and strategic significance, appropriate leadership authorizes the sale. Sale documents are executed and portfolio transfer is completed. Post-sale monitoring ensures buyer compliance with contractual terms.

Inputs + systems

This process relies on portfolio data, valuation models, buyer information, and regulatory requirements. Triggers include portfolio aging thresholds, strategic initiatives, or market opportunities. Integration with collections systems, financial planning tools, and contract management platforms supports transaction execution.

Key decision points

Key decision points include determining whether the portfolio is appropriate for sale, whether proposed pricing meets thresholds, whether the buyer meets qualification standards, and whether transaction terms adequately protect the organization.

Common failure points

Portfolios sold below optimal value due to poor timing or process. Buyer compliance issues creating reputational damage. Regulatory violations in sale process or buyer practices. Inadequate representations causing post-sale disputes.
