Dear Leader,

Vehicle theft continues to be a point of pain for many of our customers and dealerships across the country. Our feature story takes a deep dive into this pervasive and growing threat, exposing new theft schemes and methods, and sharing insights from Zurich risk managers to help mitigate your exposure.

Zurich is teaming up with Polly to deliver the next generation of F&I solutions to customers nationwide. Find out more about this innovative platform that brings automotive insurance and car buying together to offer cost savings for consumers at the dealership.

All auto dealerships should be familiar with the Federal Trade Commission’s Safeguards Rule and the June 9, 2023, deadline to comply with the rule’s 2021 expansions. Our article, How Zurich helps customers address Safeguards Rule compliance, provides a roadmap for your dealership.

Our Government Affairs team provides an update on federal policy issues affecting auto dealers, including the latest on the FTC-proposed Motor Vehicle Dealers Trade Regulation Rule and the Inflation Reduction Act.

In our customer spotlight, we share the news of Lithia Motor’s selection of Zurich to provide F&I solutions to their network of dealerships in the U.S.

And finally, we are wrapping up the celebration of our 100th year of service to auto dealers. On behalf of our entire team, I thank you for your partnership, and look forward to another remarkable 100!

Regards,

Vince Santivasi
