Day-to-day activities vary based on the group, but may include Credit Risk, Pricing, and Partnership analysis.

Analysts ask and answer questions such as: What changes are needed to optimize profit or drive volume? How can we better understand the impacts of past changes? What new product features will be more compelling to dealer-partners? What insights can be gained from competitors? What KPIs should be developed and what do those KPI trends indicate?
