NEW YORK, Jan. 5, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Consumer Automotive Financial Services in Canada investigates the market for automotive financial services linked to sales of new and used passenger cars to individual buyers in Canada. In addition to analysing the market for finance and leasing services, the study also covers creditor insurance, motor insurance, GAP insurance, road assistance, extended warranties and prepaid service contracts, plus three niche protection products, namely excess wear and tear, scratch and dent, and tire and rim.

Using survey results for average take-up rates for finance and leasing propositions at the point of sale, data for the size and growth of the automotive finance and leasing market for consumers in Canada is provided in terms of gross advances and assets leased for 2011 to 2015 with splits between finance for new and used cars and between finance organised through dealerships at the point of sale and directly with banks or other lending institutions.

Moreover, also by means of data for average take-up rates, the markets for creditor insurance, motor insurance, GAP insurance, road assistance, extended warranties, prepaid service contracts and the three niche protection products mentioned above are sized in terms of gross written premiums and other revenues sold through the automotive trade (i.e. via dealers and manufacturers) in 2015. These markets, estimated to be worth CAD 2.51 billion in total in 2015, are broken down between new and used cars, and between new contracts sold during 2015 and in-force business sold in previous years but still being renewed in 2015.

The report draws on a survey of 65 leading car dealerships as well as an analysis of the approach to consumer automotive financial services of 32 car manufacturer brands in Canada. The PartnerBASE™ dataset that accompanies the report details each of the marketing initiatives for consumer automotive financial services traced by Finaccord for both dealers and manufacturers.

In addition to captive finance companies owned by manufacturer brands, organisations covered by the report include BMO Financial Group, Club Auto Roadside Services, Co-operators, Desjardins, Diamond-Kote, First Canadian, General Bank of Canada, Groupe PPP, iA-SAL (Industrial Alliance), LGM, Lubrico, RBC, Safe-Guard, Scotiabank, SSQ Financial Group, Sykes Assistance Services, Sym-Tech, TD Canada Trust, Tricor and Walkaway. Together, the report and database will provide you with the definitive guide to current and future opportunities in consumer automotive financial services in Canada.
