Debtist, one of Europe’s leading providers of digital debt collection services for both B2B and B2C, continues its growth trajectory by opening an office in the United Kingdom. With the official market entry in July, the company – founded in 2023 – strengthens its presence in Western Europe and gains access to another strategically important market.
“From the very beginning of Debtist, we knew the UK had to be a cornerstone of our growth journey. We’re incredibly proud – and grateful – that we made it happen so early on,” says Matteo Benedetti, Co-Founder of Debtist.
Expanding into one of Europe’s key markets
The entry into the British market marks another milestone on Debtist’s path to becoming Europe’s leading digital debt collection provider. The new London office is part of the company’s strategic growth agenda, through which it aims to establish its tech-driven receivables management solution across Europe – step by step.
The United Kingdom is one of Europe’s largest economies. With projected economic growth of approximately 1.2% in 2025, the British economy is showing moderate signs of recovery. At the same time, post-Brexit regulatory requirements present new challenges in the financial sector – challenges that Debtist addresses directly with its digital and AI-powered solutions.
Reinforcements on the team: Benedetta Arese Lucini supports UK launch
The market entry is supported by Benedetta Arese Lucini, Debtist Non-Executive Director and one of the company’s earliest investors. As an FCA-approved executive, she is deeply familiar with the UK market and its regulatory landscape. Her international experience and strategic perspective provide valuable input for our expansion efforts.
“From the moment I invested in Debtist, I was deeply inspired by the founding team’s vision. I saw clear potential for the company’s value to resonate across every European market – and I’m especially excited to support their expansion into the UK,” says Benedetta Arese Lucini.
Advancing technology for the UK debt collection market
By opening its new London office, Debtist aims to tailor its automated, AI-powered receivables management solutions to the specific needs of the UK market. The company collaborates closely with local partners to ensure that processes and communication are both efficient and compliant with market standards.
For businesses, this means a modern, digital debt collection process without friction – even across borders.
Debtist continues its growth across Europe
The move into the UK is a logical next step in Debtist’s long-term vision: to become Europe’s leading digital debt collection provider. With every new market it enters, the company expands its reach – and brings transformation to the world of receivables management one step closer.
