Users can also analyze collateral performance and create custom views that meet their specific portfolio needs. Available through the Black Book Lender Solutions division, the new product provides fast, easy and accurate insight so lenders can identify opportunities, fine tune loss forecasting and balance portfolios.
Collateral data is extremely important to lenders as they look to further expand their portfolios in an automotive industry that continues to grow.
