For financial institutions with car finance

Market value of every car-loan collateral, reviewed monthly.

The problem

In car finance the car is the collateral, yet it is valued when the loan is granted and never looked at again. When a segment's market falls, the bank finds out at recovery, not before.

  • Collateral value set once, at origination
  • No warning on contracts whose car is already worth less than the debt
  • Supervisors asking for prudence on balloon-payment residuals

A case with real numbers

Reviewing the collateral of a balloon-payment loan

Scenario: a bank finances a 2019 Volkswagen Golf with 92,000 km in Spain, with a balloon payment due in 12 months. The engine valued it on 26 Oct 2026.

  1. Today's market value: €12,080, with an interval from €10,210 to €13,950.
  2. Projected value at 12 months: €9,509. If the agreed balloon payment is above that figure, the contract goes on the watch list.
  3. With the portfolio monitor the review repeats every month for every contract and the list is ranked by risk.

Usage scenario. The figures are those returned by the engine and those from our measurements, with their date.
