Social Telematics is a great way to build a more positive culture, with happier drivers and improved overall ROI.
Element Financial Corporation just announced that it has closed the U.S.-based portion of the previously announced acquisition of the remaining North American fleet management operations of General Electric Capital Corporation and expects to close the acquisition of GE Capital’s fleet management operations in Mexico, Australia and New Zealand on September 30, 2015, subject to customary closing conditions. Element previously acquired the Canadian operations of GE Capital’s fleet management business in June of 2013.
“The fleet management industry is a primary focus for Element Financial Corporation as a platform for delivering strong cash flows for our business, leading-edge products and services for our customers, challenging career opportunities for our employees and attractive returns for our investors,” noted Bradley Nullmeyer, Element Financial Corporation’s President.
"As telematics become increasingly standard, companies could be found liable for not integrating it into their fleets because the technology does exist, it is available and is also widely used,"
A global survey recently conducted by LeasePlan revealed that the use of telematics leads to increased driver safety, fewer accident claims and a considerable reduction in fuel consumption. The survey, which involved 3,377 drivers in 20 countries worldwide, concluded that driver behavior can be positively impacted by telematics.
