Despite recent
car finance
news reports to the contrary, it appears that the global
credit crunch has reached out from the
mortgage industry to touch other
financial services .
Lenders are apparently becoming less willing to provide other
products, including
personal loans and
credit cards . This global problem may also get worse before it
gets better, with the consumer on the receiving end.
Financial services experts predict that problems in the credit
markets will affect
car loans . The prediction is backed up by prognosis that
used car sales will fall in the next six months. Although April
used car sales figures were robust, the impact of the credit
crunch may not yet have been felt in the
car
finance sector.
