“The consumer car finance market continued to report solid growth in June, but as expected growth rates are beginning to moderate. The H1 2021 results show that new business levels have recovered strongly as restrictions to deal with the pandemic have been gradually eased. The value of consumer car finance new business in H1 2021 was only 8% lower than in H1 2019.
