This article appears to fail WP:ORGIND since all but the Forbes reference are from the firm's websites and as a result reads like an ad. Additionally after a search I cannot find any sources which would establish notability for this firm. Finally it only links to and has links from the founders article and no other article.

Keep Even before I just expanded the article, none of these concerns were valid, and all could have easily been addressed. They were founded in 1972, employ 2,000 people and have $4 billion in assets. If that's not a notable company, what is? They are privately held, and their main business is subprime car loans, so it is not surprising that they avoid publicity, but there is enough information out there.
