The chief executive added that during the past three months, retail growth was dominated by a hike in the vehicle financing business in the automobile sector. The company provided and delivered highly effective and favourable financing options for individuals.

Pancras said that more money has come into the economy through the creation of new jobs and increased salary packages with many individuals choosing to invest in cars which tend to be a necessity for transportation in our country.
