Prior to joining Nobilis, Oltman spent a 26-year career with Berkshire Hathaway Automotive (formerly the Van Tuyl Group) in numerous sales and F&I roles and later served as a consultant for nationally recognized compliance firm gvo3 & Associates. Oltman began his career with Van Tuyl in 1988 at the dealership level before moving to the corporate office in 1993.
“Greg has been an industry F&I leader for many years,” said Troy Good, Nobilis Group President and CEO. “We have had a long working relationship with Greg and are thrilled to have him join our team. His expertise across the F&I environment at one of the nation’s top 5 dealership groups, especially in income development and dealer compliance, is significant. He will play a key role in providing leadership to our national relationships as well as our growing dealer and agency business.”
The increasingly important profit center continued making gains in the first quarter, according to StoneEagle data, ancillary products proving more popular as consumers hold onto their buys longer.
For dealer-owned reinsurance entities, avoiding volatility entirely can mean falling behind inflation and missing market rebounds that drive long term surplus growth.
