Consumer Portfolio Services Joins Wolters Kluwer Financial Services’ AppOne Platform

BATON ROUGE, La. – July 29, 2010 – Wolters Kluwer Financial Services has announced that finance company Consumer Portfolio Services, Inc. (CPS) has joined its AppOne platform.

AppOne automates the indirect lending, credit approval and compliance processes for lenders and the auto, RV and marine dealers they serve. CPS is an independent specialty finance company that provides indirect automobile financing.

AppOne will provide CPS with another channel for expanding its indirect lending services to independent auto dealers. AppOne’s proprietary dealer underwriting and scoring system helps lenders evaluate the level of risk associated with each dealer relationship. AppOne also integrates Wolters Kluwer Financial Services’ Bankers Systems motor vehicle retail installment contracts, which are protected by the company’s industry-leading compliance warranty.

“Our key focus is to help dealers find the most competitive programs and financing options available,” said Robert Riedl, chief investment officer at CPS. “AppOne supports that goal by helping us connect with more dealers across the country, while helping to alleviate compliance challenges associated with indirect lending.”

“CPS has built a strong reputation within the auto dealer community,” said Lee Domingue, CEO of Indirect Lending at Wolters Kluwer Financial Services. “We are confident it will be a valuable resource to AppOne’s network of independent auto dealers.”
