DWM International

What DWM International does

DWM International GmbH is a Liechtenstein-based private company founded in 2000 that provides international debt collection and credit information services to B2B creditors holding outstanding debts against foreign counterparties. The company acts as an intermediary between creditors and debtors, coordinating recovery through a worldwide network of vetted local debt collection companies, lawyers, and credit agencies. Its core offering, International Debt Collection, combines extrajudicial and judicial default action executed by partners operating in the debtor's local language and under applicable jurisdiction-specific law. Supporting modules include Investigation & Information (global address investigation and credit ratings), BonLi (Bonitätsauskunft) for credit information on individuals and companies in Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, and worldwide, and a proprietary Debtor Portal that allows debtors to view case details, exchange messages, and apply for installment plans. Domestic Swiss and Liechtenstein collections are routed through core partner IB Score AG.

The company monetizes exclusively through success commissions on recovered debts, with rates ranging from 11% to 35% depending on the country and whether the claim is titled, and uses a direct B2B enterprise sales motion including appointment-based first consultations. Its technology stack centers on the Debtor Portal (a SaaS-style case management and communication interface) integrated with the operations of external local partners; no public API, SDK, or AI/ML capabilities are disclosed. Distribution is direct enterprise sales supported by PR coverage on NGO-Online.de and a YouTube introductory video.

DWM is headquartered in Triesen, Liechtenstein, operates with 11-50 employees, and is led by founder and managing director Dick Wolff, with Ulrike Amann serving as Data Protection Officer. The company has no parent, no subsidiaries, no external investors, and no disclosed funding rounds; ownership commentary indicates a privately held GmbH under founder management. No revenue figure, headcount trend, or growth metric is publicly disclosed, and there are no acquisitions, leadership changes, or capital-markets events in the source record.
