The consumer finance industry
provides a valuable service to consumers
by lending them money to meet their financial
needs. Without consumer finance companies,
many people would have no source for borrowing
money when they needed it.
By allowing people to satisfy their wants
and needs today and pay for them with future
income, consumer finance companies make
it possible for people to live better lives.
In so doing, the consumer finance industry
makes positive contributions to the economy.
The consumer finance industry helps businesses
that manufacture and sell goods and services
by providing people with the means to purchase
these goods and services - both through
loans to consumers and through salaries
paid to the many people employed in the
consumer finance industry.

Sun Loan Company®
is part of the consumer finance
industry that pumps billions of dollars
into the economy of the United States yearly.
The consumer finance industry consists of
all sorts of companies that lend money to
consumers to allow them to purchase the
goods or services that they need to enrich
their lives. Some companies make loans for
specific purchases, like an automobile,
using the item purchased as security, or
collateral, on the loan. Some companies
issue credit cards that allow individuals
to make purchases virtually anywhere by
utilizing a line of credit associated with
that card. Others, like Sun
Loan Company®, make loans
based on the credit worthiness of the applicant
that the consumer can use for any purpose
they see fit.
