About the Auto Finance Excellence Awards

The Auto Finance Excellence Awards, presented annually since 2004, recognize achievement and contribution to the automotive finance industry. Recipients are chosen from nominations by members of the industry and after the careful consideration of the senior editorial team at Auto Finance News, as well as based on lender rankings in the Auto Finance Performance, which measures lender performance in the eyes of vehicle dealers, the lenders’ customers. The goal of the Awards is to recognize members of the industry for their hard work, persistence, skills,

and/or lifetime efforts in automotive lending and leasing. The awards are presented by Auto Finance News (www.AutoFinanceNews.net), the industry’s leading information resource, at the annual Auto Finance Summit (www.AutoFinanceSummit.com). Both Auto Finance News and the Auto Finance Summit are services of Royal Media (www.royalmedia.com), a New York-based information company.

About Auto Finance Performance

Published annually since 2013, the Auto Finance Performance Report quantifies and ranks lenders on service, pricing, representatives, and products — the four broad categories that drive dealers’ decisions about financing. The rankings drill down into each category to generate granular data to isolate areas in which lenders are doing well, and to identify areas where there is room for improvement. The AFP data has been analyzed based on prime versus nonprime/subprime, by dealership size, floorplan participation, and geography, among other factors.
