Mercedes-Benz Financial Services UK
is celebrating both its 20th birthday and a record market share of
5.1% in the UK car finance market.
The Daimler Financial Services AG
subsidiary is also moving to new premises in Milton Keynes,
alongside Mercedes-Benz UK.
Launched in October 1990, the
captive finance provider says it is enjoying its most successful
period to date. The firm currently finances half of all
Mercedes-Benz passenger car registrations in the UK.
The company has a retail portfolio
of more than 143,000 vehicles worth in excess of £2.2bn.
Managing director Bob Middleton
said: “Over the past two decades, MBFS UK has prospered and grown
through its ability to offer a range of competitive products which
match the changing needs of customers and the Mercedes-Benz
retailer network.”
Mercedes-Benz Financial Services
also operates a sizeable insurance business with more than 39,000
policies. Its products have secured a five-star Defaqto rating,
which the company says “places them in the top 10% of UK
policies.”
