Testimonials

Financial Partners
Credit Union

Solutions in Finance, Inc. have been a valuable resource partner for several years. I first used their lending and collection consulting services while employed at another credit union. When I became President and CEO of Financial Partners Credit Union, I again enlisted their services. Much of our success in consumer lending and collections at Financial Partners can be attributed to implementation of their recommendations. I highly recommend Solutions in Finance, Inc. and will continue to use them as a resource.

Eagle Legacy
Credit Union

As a new CEO, it was important that I quickly grasp the business challenges and implement positive strategies and standards for Eagle Legacy Credit Union. Partnering with Solutions in Finance, Inc. to assess our operation was a very smart move on my part. There was so much to review and they helped to quickly pinpoint our weaknesses and formulate corrective action in the lending and collections area. Their recommendations and support contributed to my early success as CEO. I appreciate their expertise and look forward to continuing our business relationship.

First Financial
Credit Union

We started using Solutions in Finance consulting services based on a recommendation from another credit union. We began with their collection management services with results that far exceeded our expectations. We are very pleased as our delinquencies have decreased dramatically. In addition, we utilized Solutions in Finance indirect auto lending services which we are also very pleased with. We recommend the services of Bill Garcia and Solutions in Finance as a valuable resource for improving both loan underwriting and collection operations.

President/CEO

Point Loma Credit Union

Point Loma Credit Union started using Solutions in Finance consulting services, first in our Financial Services Department offering valuable collection recommendations, then in consumer lending to analyze our loan process, credit quality, and loan policies with very satisfactory results. Most recently we retained Solutions in Finance to assist us in writing our Business Lending Loan policies and getting us started with implementing a business-lending program.

I believe that Solutions in Finance brought a great deal of knowledge and experience that was invaluable in working with and providing guidance to our staff. We have developed a good business relationship with Solutions in Finance and look forward to utilizing their consulting services in the future.
