Innovation, Regulation and Fairer Decisioning
Motor finance is in the middle of a quiet reset. Not a sudden disruption, but a steady rethinking of how risk, affordability, and fairness are measured in practice.
Traditional models often struggle with real-world financial complexity, particularly in the non-prime segment. At the same time, regulatory expectations around explainability and responsible lending are increasing.
This webinar will bring together perspectives from across the industry to explore how lenders can improve decision quality, better understand customers, and build more transparent and evidence-led lending models.
Our expert panel will dive into essential questions, including:
Why non-prime customers are often misclassified as high risk
Why affordability remains the weakest link in many lending decisions
The growing importance of explainable, evidence-led decisioning
How better data and technology can support fairer outcomes for customers
The biggest challenge in car finance today is not risk itself, but how risk is measured and explained. Improving decision quality requires better data, clearer affordability evidence, and models that reflect real financial behaviour rather than simplified assumptions.
