Accelerating your Credit Union in the Auto Loan Market

Written by Preston Packer | Feb 10, 2015

Putting the "Mobile" in Auto Loans

When it comes to auto loans, credit unions are "car-jacking" the industry, being the pace-setter in percentage growth among lenders.  With impressive acceleration in the number of auto loans originating from credit unions last year, 2015 is the year for you to put the pedal to the metal and increase your market share:

"Auto loan originations reached $153 billion in Q2 2014, which was a 16 percent increase over the same quarter last year. While the largest contribution came from captive auto lenders at $47 billion (a 14 percent increase), credit unions experienced the largest year-over-year increase of 35 percent, with originations reaching $37 billion in the latest quarter." --Experian

Experts predict that US auto sales will hit record high's in 2015 ($13.83 million), as reported by CNBC.  With spring car buying season around the corner are you in a position to put auto loans into the hands of your members?
