IAM

What IAM does

IAM S.p.A. is an Italy-based, family-owned financial services firm specializing in non-performing loan (NPL) management. Founded in Rome on October 28, 2005 as IAM Finance S.p.A. (rebranded in 2016), the company operates from its Rome headquarters and a secondary Modena office, with approximately 30 professionals and collaborators. On December 23, 2025, IAM became the first Italian company registered by Banca d'Italia as a Gestore di crediti in sofferenza under Art. 114.1 et seq. of the Testo Unico Bancario, following a structural adaptation to Italy's transposition of EU Directive 2021/2167 (Servicers Management Directive) via D.Lgs. 116/2024.

The company delivers three core services: (1) Gestione crediti conto terzi — third-party NPL mandate management including classification, out-of-court and judicial recovery, and KPI reporting; (2) Acquisizione portafogli NPL — direct acquisition of distressed loan portfolios with technical-legal due diligence and post-acquisition management; and (3) Supporto agli operatori — regulatory and operational advisory for banks, funds, and other servicers seeking compliance with Art. 114 T.U.B. All three lines run on the proprietary GENIAM Credit platform, developed by affiliated subsidiary IAM Technology S.r.l., which handles data normalization, position classification, recovery strategy, and structured client reporting.

IAM's go-to-market is direct enterprise sales targeting Italian banks (e.g., BNL, Credito Emiliano, BCC Agro Pontino), financial services firms (Cofidis, Findomestic, Italfondiario, Prestitalia), and asset managers (Clessidra Group). Revenue is generated from a mix of managed-services fees on third-party mandates and transactional returns from directly acquired portfolios. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company is wholly family-controlled through the Aloisi family, with Maria Accordini as CEO and Marcello Aloisi as President and CFO, and has no external financial investors.
