The National Automotive
Finance Association will present a workshop for lenders and dealers
from 9 am to 3 pm on March 19, 2003 at the Embassy Suites Hotel
Atlanta - Airport.
The workshop is designed to help dealers and lenders work together in
meeting customers' needs. Interactive workshops with actual case
studies provide ample opportunities for those attending to ask
questions and to exchange information, according to the company.
The topics in the session on legal affairs (Thomas B. Hudson, Esq.
Partner, Hudson Cook LLP and Steve Levine, General Counsel Regional
Acceptance Corporation) will include: class action lawsuits; new FTC
regulations on safeguarding privacy; requirements under the Patriot
Act and other anti-terror legislation; consumer attacks on dealer
participation; developments in arbitration; and advertising practices
and the law.
In the dealer-lender session (Steve Hall, President, Easterns
Automotive Group), sales finance companies and dealers will review
four case studies representing challenges to the relationship between
dealer and finance company and develop solutions.
A session on credit (Virgil Baker, Virgil Baker & Associates) will
focus on underwriting the non-prime applicant. Through use of case
studies, those in attendance will learn techniques to help improve
risk identification of non-prime credit applicants and to prevent the
consequences of inappropriate credit decisions.
Registration is $399 per person, or $199 for NAF Association members,
and there is a $50 discount, from either rate, for additional
registrants from the same company. Information and registration form
can be found on the events page of the Association website
