- 2.0 REGIONAL OVERVIEW
- Introduction

- The region’s passenger car parc is characterized by slow but predictable growth
- Four of the eight markets reviewed experience a declining market for new passenger car sales
- The used passenger car markets of Ireland and Spain chalk up the strongest rates of growth
- New vehicle registrations are characterised by patriotic tendencies in several countries
-
although brands such as Honda, Hyundai, Suzuki and Toyota are all making steady progress..
- Motor dealer data
- The number of franchised dealers begins to grow following the low point reached in 2003
-
with the sale efficiency of Italy, Spain and the UK all now ahead of the regional average
- Finance / leasing
- Survey results
- Provision of finance and leasing services is fundamental to the profitability of dealerships
- Dealers are most likely to work with a high number of finance providers in Ireland and the UK
- The average number of finance and leasing providers used by dealers rises in all markets
-
with the exception of Spain where many non-captive entities are struggling to advance
- Captive finance providers exert the greatest control over dealerships in the Netherlands
-
with dealers most inclined to work with both captive and non-captive entities in the UK
- Average customer take-up rates at the point of sale exceed 50% only in Italy and Portugal
-
although dealerships appear to be increasing their effectiveness in several markets
-
as a result of a number of factors related to development and marketing of finance products
- Leasing accounts for more than 50% of all car finance deals for consumers only in Portugal
- The vast majority of manufacturers and importers possess their own finance / leasing services
- Market size and growth
- In terms of the overall no. of credit agreements, the UK remains the region’s largest market
-
although Italy’s point-of-sale market is substantially larger than that of any other country
-
with a value well in excess of 20 billion in gross advances and assets leased in 2006
- Private car finance in the region adds up to a market growing at an average annual rate of 2.3%
- The strong performance of dealerships in Italy and Spain helps to offset weaknesses elsewhere
- Total point-of-sale finance and leasing possessed a value of over 140 billion in 2006
- In several countries, the dealership channel is competing effectively against direct lenders
- Across the whole region, point-of-sale finance for new cars is still worth more than direct lending
- The share of dealerships in finance provided for used car sales dwindles to 15.0% in 2006
-
although this still adds up to point-of-sale gross advances and assets leased of 29.8 billion
- Motor insurance
- Over a half of all dealers interviewed offer motor insurance in all territories other than Ireland
- It is commonplace for dealerships on the Iberian peninsula to act as multi-tied agents
-
although elsewhere in Southern and Western Europe, captive propositions tend to dominate
- Average take-up rates for new cars lie between one in four and one in five vehicles sold
-
although a significant proportion of this average may be due to bundling of ‘free’ insurance
- Excluding Ireland, France appears to be the region’s least promising market for branded ins
- Almost three quarters of the region’s manufacturers or importers operate branded schemes
- Car dealerships: a viable motor insurance distribution channel for manufacturers and insurers?
- Italy and the UK are the region’s largest markets for dealer-intermediated motor insurance
-
with the tougher conditions in France underlined by the much smaller estimated market value ..

- The average number of warranty providers used in France is high relative to other countries
- Non-captive warranty prov. is developing as a result of the activity of several specialist firms
-
some of which operate internationally and some of which also run branded schemes

-
although dealerships enjoy the advantage of being the natural channel for this type of cover
- Overall take-up rates are lowest in Ireland as a result of limited provision on the part of dealers
- Over 50% of brands considered run warranty programs in all countries other than Ireland
- The market for used car warranties lags behind that for warranty extensions for new cars

AbstractFinaccord’s report titled Automotive Financial Services in Southern and Western Europe is an updated and expanded research report investigating the market for automotive financial services, defined in broad terms, linked to sales of new and used passenger cars in Southern and Western Europe. In addition to analysing the 145.7 billion market for finance and leasing services, the study also offers detailed coverage of ancillary automotive financial services markets including motor insurance, creditor insurance, extended warranties, GAP / shortfall protection insurance and road assistance. In the light of the increasing maturity of finance and leasing markets, the revenues generated from high margin ancillary products are crucial to enhancing the profits of a variety of market participants including dealers, manufacturers and independent finance providers. The report draws on the results of a survey of 500 leading car dealerships in eight countries in Southern and Western Europe - Belgium, France, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain and the UK - as well as an analysis of the approach to automotive financial services of 20 leading manufacturer groups, representing up to 37 automotive brands, in the same countries. The PartnerBASE™ database that accompanies the report details each of the marketing initiatives for automotive financial services traced by Finaccord for both dealer groups and manufacturers. Together, the report and database will provide you with the definitive guide to current and future opportunities in automotive financial services in Southern and Western Europe. Key features of this report include: coverage of the six distinct sectors within automotive financial services, namely finance / leasing, motor insurance, creditor insurance, extended warranties, GAP / shortfall protection insurance and road assistance; provision of hitherto unpublished market size and segmentation data for these markets generated from Finaccord’s proprietary European Automotive Financial Services Model; clear analysis of the market for finance and leasing services related to new and used car sales by distribution channel, differentiating between the point of sale and direct lenders; presentation of unique data from the survey of dealerships illustrating average customer take-up rates for automotive financial services at the point of sale in each country; identification of the partners used for automotive financial services by both dealerships and manufacturers with contextual commentary concerning key players such as ARC Europe, Car Garantie, Cardif, Covéa Fleet, Santander Consumer Finance and Zurich.
