Reinsurance & DOWC

Many car dealers do not form their own reinsurance companies because they are not familiar with the benefits or are fearful of the risks. A dealership typically sees an increase in profits after the dealer forms a reinsurance company. Service and Parts business increases as well since the vehicle service contract generally requires local customers to return to the dealership for the warranty work. In addition, F&I profits and product penetration goes up since the dealer sees the premium dollars accumulating in the reinsurance company.

The reinsurance company engages a third-party administrator to create the program, set up the corporation, administer the claims, provide accounting services and prepare tax returns. Most importantly, the third-party administrator will send in professional F & I consultants on a weekly or monthly basis to train your staff and monitor your programs.

How you benefit:
