About CA Consumer Finance

CA Consumer Finance (Crédit Agricole Consumer Finance) is the consumer credit subsidiary of Crédit Agricole Group, providing installment loans, auto financing (loans and leases), revolving credit/store cards, debt consolidation, point-of-sale installment plans, and credit-related insurance across multiple European markets and selected international joint ventures. It operates under and alongside local brands and partnerships, notably Sofinco in France, Agos in Italy (a joint venture with Banco BPM), and Wafasalaf in Morocco, and is active in automotive and mobility financing through dedicated subsidiaries and dealer networks. Distribution is a mix of digital channels, merchant and car dealer partnerships, brokers, and bank branches. Credit eligibility is determined by underwriting that typically combines automated scoring with document verification; pricing and maximum loan amounts vary by country, borrower profile, and term, with the annual percentage rate reflecting interest and applicable fees. Standard maturities for consumer loans range from short-term to multi‑year tenors, early repayment is permitted subject to local law and possible indemnities, and auto finance contracts may include residual value or balloon structures. Funding sources include intra‑group resources, securitizations of consumer and auto receivables, and unsecured market debt; some licensed subsidiaries may collect deposits. Asset quality and loss experience are sensitive to employment trends, interest rates, and used‑vehicle price dynamics, and collection or restructuring processes are used where necessary under local regulation. Customers generally have access to online account management, e‑statements, and direct debit payments; complaints and data rights are handled under applicable consumer protection and privacy laws. Prospective borrowers should review pre‑contractual disclosures (such as the European SECCI where applicable), assess the total cost of credit including fees and optional insurance, and understand that missed payments can affect credit records and trigger recovery actions.
