Since Michael Rhodes became its CEO, Ally Financial has gotten bigger by thinking more narrowly. Instead of growing the company's web of businesses, the company has exited some sectors while doubling down on what Ally does best: auto lending.

Nationwide, Americans are falling behind on their car loans. But among Ally Financial's customers, delinquencies fell during the first quarter.

Four years ago, the Detroit-based auto lender made a pledge to support men's and women's sports with equal advertising dollars. It's reached that goal a year ahead of schedule — and it's not stopping there.

The auto lender's earnings mostly surpassed expectations in the fourth quarter, but its financial outlook was dampened by its projection of a weaker labor market in 2026.

In a tough quarter for the auto industry, the Detroit-based lender posted earnings that sped past Wall Street's expectations.

The auto lender's earnings outpaced Wall Street's expectations. But shrinking car inventories at dealerships, which stemmed from new tariffs, put a dent in Ally's lending.

The auto lender is selling its credit card business and halting new mortgage loans, abandoning its once-broader ambitions. Ally CEO touted the move as "the power of focus."

A sale would mark a swift retreat from the intensely competitive credit card business, where Ally competes with giant players such as Capital One.

Morais, the former president of consumer and commercial banking at Ally, reflects on the lessons learned in her more than three-decade career.

The Detroit company's charge-offs on consumer auto loans rose sharply last quarter. Its CEO said he's confident losses will decline, but the next few quarters "will be choppy."

A top executive at the auto lender said that more borrowers struggled to repay their loans over the summer amid inflation and a tougher job market. Late payments on auto loans rose by more than Ally expected in July and August.

The Detroit-based auto lender has been dealing with an imbalance in deposit costs and loan yield since rates rapidly rose. Now, the bank's fixed-rate loans from before are maturing.

The Detroit-based company is exploring ways to make more consumer auto loans without running afoul of stricter capital standards that are expected from the Federal Reserve. Possible approaches include more securitizations and the use of credit risk transfers.
