  • NCO Group, Inc. (formerly National Collection Office, Inc. ), based in Horsham, PA, is a collection agency that manages customer service, outsourcing and accounts receivable for its clients. Its subsidiary, NCO Portfolio Management, handles delinquent accounts from credit card companies. NCO also purchases delinquent debt from a variety of companies, such as credit card companies, hospitals and other industries, that it then attempts to collect. NCO Group is currently the world's largest collection agency, owing to its recent acquisition of large U.S. competitor, Outsourcing Solutions, Inc. (OSI) With that acquisition, several former OSI subsidiaries became NCO subsidiaries. The following subsidiaries continue to operate under their own brands: North Shore Agency, Inc. (NSA), Transworld Systems, Inc. (TSI), and University Accounting Service, LLC (UAS). NCO Group was founded in 1926, and it was publicly traded on the NASDAQ stock exchange under the ticker symbol NCOG from 1996 until November 2006, when the company’s management team and private equity bought the company and took it private. The company’s Portfolio Management unit was separately traded under the ticker symbol NCPM until it merged with the parent company in March 2004. NCO still files with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission because it issues public corporate bonds and debt. NCO Group has over 30,500 employees in 140 locations in 10 different countries. In 2007, the company reported revenues of $1.2 billion, although the figure is expected to be significantly higher in 2008 due to the OSI and SST, Inc. acquisitions.
