Description: PRAA PRA

PRA Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRAA) is a U.S.-based financial services company specializing in the purchase, collection, and management of nonperforming (charged-off) loan portfolios. The company acquires delinquent debt at a discount from credit originators-including banks and consumer lenders-that have been unable to collect outstanding balances, then seeks to recover funds through internal collection operations and third-party legal channels. This debt-buying model generates returns based on the spread between acquisition cost and ultimate recoveries.

Its portfolio spans general purpose and private label credit cards, consumer loans, auto loans, overdrafts, and small business loans. PRA Group also services class action claims recoveries on a fee basis and handles loans tied to bankruptcy and similar insolvency proceedings. Operations extend across the United States, Europe, the United Kingdom, Canada, South America, and Australia. The company was founded in 1996, is headquartered in Norfolk, Virginia, and was renamed from Portfolio Recovery Associates, Inc. to PRA Group, Inc. in October 2014. It is classified within the Financials sector under the Consumer Finance sub-industry.
