Truist sells $5.5B auto loan portfolio, exits near-prime lending to boost profits and focus on core business.

Truist Financial is selling $5.5 billion in auto loans and exiting the near-prime auto lending market to focus on more profitable areas. The sale includes nearly all assets of its auto finance affiliate, Regional Acceptance Corporation, and is expected to close by late 2026. This move aims to improve Truist's liquidity, reduce credit risk, and enhance shareholder value by reallocating capital toward commercial lending. Proceeds will be used to repay wholesale borrowings as part of a broader strategic shift away from less profitable loan segments like marine and recreational vehicle loans.
