In February this year, DealTrak launched a compliance module on its dealer platform. The module will help manage regulated activity for the sale of automotive finance and insurance products for motor dealers, brokers, and F&I partners.
Christian Ingrey, head of insurance and data strategy, said; “Whether a small, independent retailer, or a multi-rooftop franchised dealer, most motor retailers rely heavily on the sale of F&I products in order to deliver their sales targets. With that in mind, it’s vital that efficient and compliant processes are in place to offer motor dealers a competitive advantage.”
