Regional Management Corp. (RM - Free Report) recently announced that it has opened its first branch in the Merrillville town of Indiana. With this move, RM brings the 15th US state under its operational coverage.
The strategic action is expected to have expanded the consumer finance company’s footprint in the Midwestern U.S. This will allow Regional Management to offer its suite of affordable financial solutions to local customers. This is in line with RM’s geographic expansion strategy, which enables it to expand its market share.
RM closed a $250-million (its largest) asset-backed securitization this February, strengthening its financial flexibility to execute its long-term strategies like expanding its market reach. In February, Regional Management extended its operations in Mississippi and commenced piloting end-to-end digital lending at March-end. RM continues to amplify its geographical expansion while focusing on branch optimization.
Regional Management’s branch optimization program is expected to generate $1.8 million of annual savings from general and administrative costs. These savings are reinvested in extending operations into new states. With its latest expansion in Indiana, people with limited access to consumer credit are expected to benefit from RM’s secured credit products.
