MAA Trying to Assist Car Loan Numbers

The Malaysian Automotive Association has joined the quest for new car loan buyers. The group has decided that if they join up with the government and try to come up with new ways to spark business - that everyone will benefit from it. The car loan industry, the automobile industry, and the Malaysian government will all see a piece of the reward.

The auto loan industry has been trying to get the Malaysian government to assist them in bringing in more auto loans by making new cars and their purchase prices more convenient and more desirable to consumers. They know that they have to drive the desire for business if they want to succeed.

Because sales of new cars, and hence new car loans, have dropped by more than 17% over the previous year, and they have seen the new car market continue to go down over the past fourteen months, the MAA is hoping that by offering incentives to car owners to get rid of their used cars and buy new cars that they can improve the industry.

With the trend going to decreases in car loans and car sales continuing this year, their fear is that at the end of this year they will not have reversed this disturbing trend. Last year they saw car loans drop 11% from the previous year, and then they were down more this year. They are trying to get the trend turned around before they lose even more money this year.
