Help shape the conversation at 2023 Auto Finance Summit
The Auto Finance News team is calling on subscribers and Auto Finance Summit 2023 attendees to help shape the discussion during Session 3 of the summit taking place Oct. 30, at 11:40 a.m. PT at the Bellagio Las Vegas.
AFN subscribers and summit attendees can contribute to the discussion by participating in a brief, six-question survey that gives respondents the opportunity to describe their expectations for the auto lending market in 2024 as well as which topics they would like to hear addressed during the conference. Survey responses will remain anonymous.

Survey responses will be shared with and discussed by Anthony Capizzano, head of consumer lending at Axos Bank; Nathan Hecht, founder and chief executive of Rodo; and Bruce Newmark, chief adviser at Vroom; during the session ”State of the market: Survey, forecast and discussion.” Panelists will discuss survey responses and provide their outlook on the industry.
