- BEST S.A. (BST.WA) operates as a leading debt collection and management company in the Polish financial services sector, primarily providing debt collection services to banks, lending companies, telecommunication operators, power companies, and other mass service providers; managing securitized assets for securitization funds; investing in non-performing debt portfolios; and offering debt repayment assistance through its proprietary BEST Online platform, which enables debtors to manage liabilities, select tailored installment plans, and make secure payments via methods such as BLIK and Google Pay. The company, founded in 1994 and headquartered at ul. Łużycka 8A in Gdynia, Poland, conducts operations in Poland and Italy, serving creditors across retail, telecom, utilities, and financial segments with a workforce of approximately 646 employees. As the parent of the BEST Capital Group, it oversees subsidiaries focused on investment fund establishment, debt portfolio purchases and sales, and advanced fintech solutions under the BEST 3.0 strategy, which incorporates artificial intelligence, cloud migration, and big data analytics for enhanced recovery processes. In recent developments, BEST S.A. completed its merger with Kredyt Inkaso S.A. in early April 2025 through an acquisition structure, integrating assets valued at approximately PLN 680.6 million in claims and issuing up to 5.83 million new shares representing 20.5% of the enlarged share capital, thereby elevating the group's equity beyond PLN 1 billion and positioning it as the second-largest player in the Polish debt market. The company also executed a record PLN 204.6 million in portfolio investments during the first half of 2025, acquiring claims with a nominal value nearing PLN 800 million, alongside oversubscribed bond issuances such as series AC5 to co-finance further acquisitions in Poland and Italy, reflecting accelerated growth and operational synergies post-merger.
