Capital One Executive to Join Elite Panel at Upcoming Re3 Conference
Yet another high-level executive from one of the nation’s largest auto finance companies is scheduled to join panel discussions at this year’s Re3 Conference, the part of the annual Used Car Week that delves into the recovery, repossession and remarketing fields.
Now on tap to be a part of the second-ever event is Veena Yelamanchili, operations manager for repo services with Capital One. Yelamanchili will be a part of Re3’s opening general session titled, "The State of the Re3 Industry-Government Regulation & Market Reports: Insight, Perspective & Ideas from Top Auto Finance Executives."
That panel also is set to include:
—Mike Goins, head of deficiency recovery, TD Auto Finance
—Jeff Haynes, vice president of remarketing & repossession, BBVA Compass Bank
—Brent Huisman, vice president of remarketing, Santander Consumer USA
—Stephanie Williams, vice president of asset disposition, SunTrust
The Re3 Conference is set for Nov. 14, immediately following the CPO Dealer Forum and just ahead of Used Car Week’s flagship event, the National Remarketing Conference. All three conferences will take place at The Phoenician Resort in Scottsdale, Ariz., from Nov. 12 through 16.
Conference chairman Bill Zadeits explained the thinking behind rolling out Re3.
"Our initial thoughts on the Re3 event were that the industry was such a close relative to the remarketing industry that we needed to provide a forum for the auto finance companies to discuss best practices, challenges and opportunities within the segment," Zadeits said.
"While we’d hosted sessions during the National Remarketing Conference in the past that focused on the Re3 segment — the feedback was that we could be doing more," he continued. "We answered that in a couple of ways — with the Re3 enewsletter that is published weekly and with the launch of the Re3 Conference.
"Our hope is that the Re3 will grow into the industry’s leading event as it is a perfect complement to the National Remarketing Conference," Zadeits went on to say.
Attendees can pick up an early bird discount through Oct. 15. The complete agenda and more event details can be found online at re3.autoremarketing.com.
