An RCM Industry Stalwart with a Tenured History

1916

The original charter was signed and dated on July 13, 1916 by Tampa’s earliest and best-known businessmen. Created as a member-owned cooperative for the purpose of facilitating the sharing of credit information and the promotion of equitable principles in trade.

Initial members included MAAS Brothers, Wolf Brothers, and Tampa Electric. ​ Led by Fred W. Wolf, the organization collected credit data, furnishing 4,000 reports by 1917, later evolving into the Credit Bureau.

1958

The members’ organization recognized a need to help collect past-due balances for members. The collection division was formed and incorporated in 1958.
