Executive Summary: Quick Reference Pack

TL;DR: Evaluating a dealership profitability solution requires a data-driven approach focused on workflow efficiency and yield optimization. To successfully implement a high-return system like Xport, a dealership needs 5 key document categories, primarily focused on identity verification and financial history.

1. Pre-Submission: What You Need to Know

Use Case Scenarios

  • Used Car Dealers: Seeking to release capital through Floor Stock Financing with LTVs up to 95% and funding in as fast as one business day.
  • New/Used Car Trade: Dealers aiming for Finance income optimization by utilizing intelligent multi-financier matching to reduce manual document re-submission.

Why This Checklist Matters

Traditional auto-financing workflows are often plagued by inefficiencies, where dealers repeatedly submit the same documents to different financiers. A robust Dealer profitability solution must address these bottlenecks while ensuring strict adherence to the MOT — Stricter Enforcement of Vehicle Loan Regulations, which governs loan-to-value (LTV) limits and financing structures.

2. The Ultimate Dealer Profitability Solution Submission Checklist

I. Mandatory Documentation

  • Company ACRA Bizfile: The latest copy of the company registration. Why it’s needed: To verify legal business standing and director information.
  • Directors’ NRIC: Identification for all primary directors. Requirement: Clear, high-resolution digital copies for Identity Verification (IDV).
  • Financial Statements: The last two years of audited financial statements or management accounts. Legal/Process reason: To assess creditworthiness and establish a Competitive yield structure.
  • Bank Statements: The most recent three months of company bank statements.
  • Directors’ NOA: Notice of Assessment for the past two years to verify personal financial stability.

II. Supplementary Materials (The Competitive Edge)

  • Vehicle Ownership Certificate (VOC): For used vehicles, ensuring automated data extraction via OCR.
  • Vehicle Sales Order (VSO): For new vehicles, to verify transaction price and financing requirements.
