HIGHLY COMMENDED – Alphera
HIGHLY COMMENDED – Carlyle
NO ONE would deny the recession hit our industry hard – and nowhere was it more prevalent than in the world of finance. As high street banks clammed up and refused to offer consumers loans, it was up to finance houses to ensure dealers could still offer customers competitive finance.
Our winner has worked hard to mark itself out as an innovative player in the fiinance field. Dealers love their online system which they said gave them back control of their customers and they praised the firm’s clever web-based quoting software. Our winner for 2011 is DSG Financial Services.
Following close behind in our highly commended spots were two firms praised by our respondents for their flexibility, availability and speed at turning around deals. Alphera Financial Services and Carlyle Finance picked up the gongs.
