Four areas: Operational Maturity (automation, channel orchestration, right-party contact, cost-to-collect); AI Readiness (data foundations, platforms, governance, people and customer-facing AI); Compliance and Consumer Duty (outcomes monitoring, vulnerable-customer handling, CONC and evidence); and Risk and Service (affordability, forbearance, arrears strategy and customer outcomes).
