Get ready to take the Inside Track
We had the opportunity to join the latest episode of BVRLA Inside Track podcast in May and it's now available for download.
Gofor head of sales, Paul Gordon, was joined by fellow broking experts for a Leasing Broker-focused conversation with host Adam Forshaw. The panel covered the current state of the sector and key external factors, including product trends, the electric vehicle opportunity, and Consumer Duty. Paul commented:
Thanks to the team at the BVRLA for the invite; a great panel to discuss what's on the broking horizon with. Supply is improving and, from EV to driver tech, there are some fantastic products in the market and many reasons to be optimistic

Don’t let early termination be your salary sacrifice barrier
Gofor's salary sacrifice for electric vehicle product expert, Michael Hook, published his latest article in May, aiming to help businesses manage the risk associated with employees who leave the business and terminate their electric vehicle lease early.
In the article, Michael looks at the range of options available to help overcome this barrier, and to help business get support their employees to make a difference in a brand-new electric car, including:
✔ Using National Insurance savings to offset any risks
✔ Deciding who takes the early termination risk
✔ Looking at options for vehicle re-allocation (where a fleet management provider, like, for example, Gofor, can prove massively useful…)
Michael’s article is available in full here.
