Exeter facilitated the origination of Massachusetts auto loans that the company knew or should have known were unfair and in violation of the state Consumer Protection Law. Courts have held that lending is unlawful under the statute if lenders do not have a basis for believing that borrowers will be able to repay their loans in normal course. Exeter also allegedly mishandled servicing and collecting activities in violation of the Attorney Generals debt collection regulations. 

Car loans to consumers with poor credit, known as subprime auto loans, are often made through contracts signed at the car dealership, but the loans are funded by non-dealer financial institutions, like Exeter. As part of the funding process, these financial institutions securitize the loans, funding them by selling investment notes.
