At Black Book, we’re proud to announce that we are adding a Director, Captive and Lender Licensing, to focus on the expansion and utilization of our suite of data and analytics-oriented products and services utilized by Captive Finance companies, National Lenders and other strategic, enterprise level automotive finance opportunities.
