Collaboration to Stimulate Market Demand and Drive Growth for Used Car Industry<\/em><\/h5>\n

KUALA LUMPUR, 20 JULY 2020<\/strong> \u2013 Southeast Asia\u2019s largest online used car trading platform, Carsome has entered a partnership with CIMB Bank Berhad (CIMB) to provide a co-developed inventory financing solution to used car dealers, directly reducing processing time and minimizing physical documentation via Carsome\u2019s online platform in Malaysia.<\/p>\n

The collaboration, a first-in-market between a bank and an online used car trading platform, is expected to drive inventory volume for dealers, subsequently increasing market demand within the used car industry.<\/p>\n

Carsome Co-founder and Group CEO Eric Cheng said the company is excited to work with CIMB in providing seamless financing solutions for its dealers. \u201cOur partnership with CIMB will enable a more efficient financing option for car dealers who acquire inventory on Carsome\u2019s platform, which in turn helps them grow their businesses,\u201d said Cheng.<\/p>\n

Chief Executive Officer of Group Ventures & Partnerships at CIMB Group, Effendy Shahul Hamid said, \u201cCIMB is pleased to partner Carsome to integrate a lending solution within its digital ecosystem. We hope this partnership will provide more accessible and straight-through financing facilities that deliver better turnaround and enablement for dealers. Businesses today not only expect financial services to be available digitally, but also embedded within the platforms they transact with. This is precisely where CIMB intends to create value for Carsome and its users.\u201d<\/p>\n

The collaboration with CIMB underlines Carsome\u2019s rapid growth since its inception in 2015. \u00a0The company recently reported a V-shaped recovery since resuming business after the Movement Control Order (MCO) period. In May 2020, Carsome launched its RM55.5 million Dealer Alliance Support Program, an initiative that provides short-term boosts in the forms of bonus rewards and credit lines to help used car dealers rebuild their businesses and finances after MCO.<\/p>\n
