S&U PLC's (LON:SUS) Anthony Coombs tells Proactive's Katie Pilbeam their business is 'surprisingly robust' with demand still 'very strong'.
Coombs says the current level of uncertainty is a real challenge, given that 'if people don't know how quickly we're going to come out of lockdown, people don't know how quickly there'll come off of furlough or what the unemployment implications will be'.
Despite this, Coombs is adamant that his business is very strong with good collection quality. It is also planning for a significant recovery to pre-[coronavirus] motor finance transaction levels as lockdown restrictions ease this year. He says they are in 'very strong position to take advantage of the recovery' but notes, it's impossible to know when that will be.
