Protective’s asset protection division offers finance and insurance solutions to the automotive industry.

Its programmes include extended service contracts, guaranteed asset protection (GAP) and ancillary products to protect consumers’ investments in automobiles, recreational vehicles, watercraft and powersports vehicles, among others.

“Becoming part of the Protective family is an exciting step on our company’s journey, and we look forward to the benefits this opportunity will provide our team members, partners and customers.”

Protective Asset Protection president Scott Karchunas added: “Revolos has built a strong organisation with a focus on meeting the needs of agents, dealers and financial institutions.

“We are excited about the opportunity to grow market share and protect more customers by adding Revolos’ complementary product portfolio and distribution channels to our current business lines.”
