Our company is committed to being a trusted leader, changing the world’s perception of our industry. At PRA Group, we meet high levels of compliance and reliability, create rewarding careers for employees, and treat customers fairly while developing affordable payment options.

Collaborating with Customers to Resolve Their Debt Since 1996.
We play a critical role in the consumer lending industry. Founded in 1996 by Steve Fredrickson and Kevin Stevenson, the vision for the company was to create a professional business in the nonperforming loan market. Specifically, the goal was to build a company that treated customers fairly and with respect, met high levels of compliance and reliability, and created rewarding careers for its employees.
The company went public on November 8, 2002, as Portfolio Recovery Associates, Inc. and changed its name to PRA Group, Inc. in October of 2014. Through its subsidiaries, PRA Group has grown to become one of the largest acquirers of nonperforming loans in the world, with thousands of employees and offices worldwide.
