 Dealers Assurance Company, will include George Belokas, actuary, GPW and Associates, Inc., Lee Bowron, vice president, Kerper and Bowron, LLC, and Michael Covert, principal, Perr&Knight.

“If you had a full-time actuary on staff, what would he or she say about the profitability trends in your F&I products?” asks Gruber, “Are there unprofitable pockets of business that are jeopardizing your back-end profits? Are you appropriately targeting the most profitable segments of your business? Are you getting adversely selected against because you don’t understand the latest trends in the market? If you don’t know the answers to these questions, attend our panel session,
