Abstract
Finaccord' s report titled Automotive Finance and Leasing for Consumers in
Europe delivers comprehensive and in-depth research covering the €253.0
billion market for private car finance in 26 countries in Europe, namely:
Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany,
Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal,
Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey,
Ukraine and the UK. Based on a survey of 1,370 dealers in these countries, in
addition to an investigation covering up to 37 manufacturers / importers in
each territory, the study delivers unique insights into the market for finance
and leasing for new and used passenger cars bought by consumers with fully
comparable and standardised data describing market values and volumes.
Moreover, Finaccord' s Automotive Finance and Leasing Model splits this data
for each country between point-of-sale finance intermediated by dealers and
finance provided directly to consumers by lending institutions. In addition to
this comprehensive market data, the survey results are also used to measure
the propensity of dealers to work with non-captive finance and leasing
partners as well as captive entities, to identify the leading non-captive
providers at the point of sale and to understand relationships between
manufacturers or importers and external finance and leasing companies for
branded or endorsed consumer finance propositions.
