A New Mexico Collection Agency Bond is a type of surety bond and is just one of the requirements to obtain a collection agency license in the state of New Mexico. While the license and surety bond are the New Mexico Financial Institutions Division, the license application is processed by the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System (NMLS).
Per statute “Any person or entity engaging in business for the purpose of collecting or attempting to collect, directly or indirectly, debts owed or due or asserted to be owed or due another, where such person is so engaged by two or more creditors. The term also includes any creditor who, in the process of collecting his own debts, uses any name other than his own which would indicate that a third person is collecting or attempting to collect such debts.” The collection agency license authorizes the following activities:
- Active debt buying (undertakes direct collections on accounts)
- Consumer loan servicing
- First party debt collection
- Judgment recovery
