AmeriCredit gives credit where it's not necessarily due. The company purchases loans made by about 10,000 franchised and independent auto dealers primarily to consumers with less-than-ideal credit histories. It typically finances low-mileage, late-model used cars (about 80% of all loans), and the occasional new automobile. The company then periodically transfers its loans to securitization trusts, retains the servicing, and reinvests the proceeds in new loans. Post-credit market meltdown, the lender has nearly 1 million customers and approximately $11 billion in managed auto receivables. It operates about 15 credit centers in suburban locations close to car dealerships.
