Who is responsible for providing the loan and processing the credit agreement?

In automotive finance, the loan itself and the formal credit agreement are provided and processed by the finance provider. They fund the vehicle purchase, set the loan terms (amount, rate, term), perform any credit checks, and handle the contract paperwork and repayment obligations. The retailer acts as an intermediary, helping you choose finance options, gather information, and facilitate the application, but they do not supply the funds or finalize the credit contract. The insurer isn’t involved in funding or processing the loan unless you’ve bought optional protection products; it doesn’t administer the credit agreement. So the finance provider is the party responsible for both providing the loan and processing the credit agreement.
