BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK wins Best Manufacturer Finance Provider
Leading finance provider, BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK, has been named Best Manufacturer Finance Provider at this year’s Credit Strategy Car Finance Awards, cementing its position as a leading force in the UK motor finance sector.
The Car Finance Awards, now in their 10th year, celebrates outstanding achievement and leadership in the car finance industry. This year’s awards were particularly special, as it focused on recognising the dedication and resilience of professionals committed to driving progress and maintaining the highest standards across the industry.
For BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK, winning Best Manufacturer Finance Provider is testament to a transformative year for its Motor Finance team — a year that can be defined by rapid growth, strategic partnerships, and an unwavering commitment to delivering value for manufacturers, retailers, and customers alike.
Since its 2018 launch, which focused on a wide range of auto financing solutions, BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK’s motor finance team has gone from strength to strength, resulting in an expansion of its offering into the leisure market.
Among the standout achievements that contributed to this award win was the successful launch of new automotive brands OMODA & JAECOO into the UK market — with BNP Paribas Personal Finance UK delivering a fully operational finance solution in just seven weeks.
Since launch, the automotive brands’ dealer network has more than doubled, and they have collectively registered over 10,000 vehicles — earning them the title of the UK’s fastest growing motor brand.
As well as an award win, BNP Paribas Personal Finance’s motor finance team gained further recognition for Jan Smith, who was named a finalist for Best Relationship Manager, highlighting the calibre and commitment of the team.
Andrew Brameld, chief commercial officer, shared: “Winning Best Manufacturer Finance Provider is a fantastic achievement and a reflection of the commitment and hard work of our entire team. It shows that our continued focus on partnerships, service and innovation is delivering real value.
