MINNEAPOLIS — Wolters Kluwer Financial Services has formed an indirect lending business unit to expand its reach across the broader indirect
lending market.
Over the past two years,
Wolters Kluwer has been focused on expanding its customizable compliance tools,
services and partnerships in the indirect lending space, as well as offering
more compliance solutions to marine and RV dealers, and the lenders that serve
them.
The creation of a dedicated indirect
lending group aligns all of Wolters Kluwer’s indirect lending offerings within
one business unit. These offerings include:
• AppOne – A
process patent-pending technology that automates indirect lending, credit
approval and compliance processes for auto, marine and RV dealers and lenders.
• CompliSource – A
solution comprised of modules containing comprehensive information about the
current laws and pending legislation related to specific areas of indirect
lending.
• DMSOne – A
Web-based dealership management system and portal specifically designed for
independent auto dealers.
• DocOne – A
document printing engine and compliance validation tool that makes the finance
process easier for dealers by providing data merging and population of
compliant forms.
• Electronic and
paper contracts – A complete selection of forms and documents that support the
financing of motor vehicles and goods and services, such as watercraft,
recreational vehicles and major appliances.
• RefundOne – A
patent-pending, integrated credit application and tax preparation service
tailored to meet the needs of the automotive dealership market.
Wolters Kluwer has named Lee
Domingue as CEO of indirect lending. His team will include Brad Fleener,
director of product development; Chris Herndon, chief operations officer; Kevin
Kopp, director of market management; Param Ramakrishnan, chief technology officer;
and Daniel Willis, lender development manager.
“There is great need in the
indirect lending market for tools that can simplify the various aspects of
regulatory compliance—particularly in the current marketplace where many
businesses are required to do more with less resources,” said Ken Newton,
executive vice president of banking at Wolters Kluwer. “The creation of this
business unit will enable increased focus to deliver the right compliance and
risk management solutions for customers.”
