Welcome to Auto Finance Connect — a day bringing together leaders across auto finance for the conversations shaping the industry right now.

You will have been “somewhat distracted” by the commission disclosure issue over the past few months. This journey is far from over and there will be many more twists and turns in the roads ahead.

We will of course be providing a fully up to date “state of the nation redress” update with a keynote and workshop with Wayne Gibbard from Shoosmiths, but there are many other reasons why attending the conference is important.

Importantly, we will be presenting our initial “Horizon scanning” ideas covering funding, regulation, the EV transition, technology and consumer duty. You will hear our view on where each is heading, what it means for lenders' businesses, and what to do about it.

We're looking forward to welcoming you to Kings Place on 24 November. See you there.
