Event Summary
Motor Finance Europe 2009
Marriott Grosvenor Square ■ 13 March ■ London
Following on from 2008's highly successful event, Motor Finance Europe 2009 will give executives from the motor finance and
fleet worlds the knowledge and tools they need to stay ahead of the competition.
As penetration levels of point-of-sale motor finance rise but new and used car sales volumes fall, providers of car finance
must work harder than ever to attract and retain customers. The challenges facing motor financiers and dealers are formidable,
but there are still opportunities out there to capture and grow your business.
Fleets have been hard hit by a rising tide of regulation, collapsing residual values, and a contraction in driver numbers as
firms shed staff. Fleet customers across Europe are looking for flexibility above all, and lessors that do not respond to their
customers' changing needs will lose out. But in these turbulent times, businesses may prefer the peace of mind that comes
from leasing rather than owning company vehicles, meaning contract hire could become more popular, and opening up new markets
for fleets.
Motor Finance Europe 2009 will offer an outstanding opportunity for international lenders and lessors to engage in a frank
and thought-provoking conversation on issues that concern the industry via the in-depth forums and unparalleled networking
opportunities, with how to maintain profitability during turbulent times always top of the agenda.
