Credit Management
Specialist TKB
TKB’s history has made us the organisation that we are today. From its foundation in 1988 until the current time, we have continued to develop and change with the times. However, our core values and vision have not wavered and form the common thread that links our daily actions and performances for our customers.
2021
We are fully focused on the future and challenge ourselves to continuously strive to achieve the best results, of ourselves, and of each other. This market is continually evolving and TKB is always three steps ahead. This ensures we will always be in tune with our client’s needs and requirements. Both now and in the future.
2010
In 2010, Tom Pasterkamp handed over daily management to Rutger van Oosten. It is now his task to carry out the vision of TKB, ensure constant and strategic innovations, and guide this fast growing team through these endeavors.
2004
During the last years, partly due to market demand, our credit management software TRUST IT was developed and has continued to evolve. At the same time our Outsourcing department was set up as a means to resolve the issue of unpaid invoices on behalf of our clients.
1998
TKB’s pioneering spirit was the driving force behind the start of our secondment service. At the end of the nineties, TKB Secondment was set up in response to a concrete demand from clients that TKB professionals'd be able to form part of their internal teams for determined periods of time.
1988
TKB’s roots are in Amsterdam’s ‘Old West’ district. Tom Pasterkamp started debt collection agency Trust Krediet Beheer (TKB – Trust Credit Management) from his home. From the beginning, his primary goal was to fulfil his clients needs and requirements to the highest possible standard, in his typical non-nonsense fashion.
