Car buyers hoping to get a rental car from General Motors, without high credit ratings might be a bit of traction, according to press reports of changes in lending practices of large manufacturer. GM new captive finance companies, GE Financial, announced in February that seeks to expand its leasing program to customers about high-risk and high risk primary car finance News (APN) reports. For the granting of loans and leases vehicles to consumers with a wide range of credit ratings, GM will sell more cars, the manufacturer's declaration in the news, which is consistent with GM's announcement last year that the crisis subprime credit car loan was holding back sales in the U.S., according AFN.At that time, GM North America Executive Mark Reuss said that Honda became 20 percent of its sales and leases buyers subprime
GM was only 1 percent, because he could not use the money to loan to these customers. "You can finance your car a lot less of us," said Reuss, in May 2010. "I'm not sure what the answer is. But it would sure help my sales, the company's sales in North America, if we were able to achieve." Now, GM has bought AmeriCredit to help finance car loans to buyers subprime, it makes sense that GM would like to expand the options of leasing for buyers subprime as well. When the economy is still in a model of participation in most of the United States, more borrowers to do with the attempt to obtain personal loans and loans for cars of less than good credit, and often little more than unemployment checks display voice
"We just launched our rental program of choice for GM dealers in December 2010, and was well received by distributors," Caitlin DeYoung, Vice President of Investor Relations, Finance new cars, says high risk. "Since then we have made the program available to GM dealers in 15 states and seek additional rental program will be available nationwide this summer. We extend our rental program the customers to plan short-and first prime and subprime to expand the program in Canada this year. We are committed to providing dealers with financing options and will continue to pursue the development of other programs and products to help dealers sell more vehicles. "It's no secret that GM executives wants to give customers the option of borrowing as a way to boost sales
Since it emerged from bankruptcy in July 2009, GM has dragged rivals the cleanest house in which a lender in selling cars to consumers with subprime loans and leasing. APN said is exactly why GM bought subprime lender AmeriCredit Fort Worth in July and as GE Financial. The unit's double set ready for the fourth quarter to $ 935 million. "We are beginning to close the [difference], because we have competition between GM and Financial ally," said GM North America President Mark L. Reuss at an investor conference in January, and noted that the presence of GMOs financial incentives to ally more subprime loans. For those who do not know, Ally Financial is a former subsidiary of GM. Ally, GM officials for example, did not want to drive the business partner
Distributors to rely on customers to borrow. More importantly, Ally, provided 82.1 percent of the money GM dealers use warehouse showrooms in the fourth quarter, the so-called floor-plan loans. Ally currently offers retailers the lowest 2.25 per cent of these loans, says Durant, a dealer in Grapevine. With a junk credit rating and have no access to bank deposits, the GM would be difficult to provide such a low, says Keller. At the same time GM starts to increase its leasing and subprime mortgages, according to AFN. GM's financial litigation began leasing program in Ohio in December, and expanded to seven states in the Northeast in January, GM Vice President of sales in the United States by Don Johnson said on February 1.
