The Auto Finance Risk Summit has augmented its speaker faculty with senior risk executives from Prestige Financial, Turner Acceptance, and Westlake Financial.
Marcus Tarbet, senior risk analyst at Prestige Financial Services Inc., and Andres Huertas, manager of direct and indirect merchant financing at Turner Acceptance Corp., will participate in a panel to hash out strategies for controlling growth in a newly competitive market. The group will present tactics for increasing profitability, combating “irrational” lending, and balancing price with volume and potential losses.
Rich Damschen, assistant vice president of business strategies at Westlake Financial Services, will take part in a case study discussion on risk management practices. The panel will hash out issues like managing risk as competition heats up, best practices and operational strategies, and overcoming the hurdles to effective risk management.
