Cash Recoveries dip
In March, cash recoveries jumped higher by 35.3%, so it was expected that the amount of cash recovered would drop in April. Over the month, €508,874 were recovered, compared to €744,546 a month ago. The majority of this decrease can be attributed to Estonian missed payments in the bailiff stage, which fell by 93.3% month-over-month, down to €231,014.
