Bank of America will make an initial purchase of $5 billion. In each of the agreement’s five fiscal years (July 1-June 30), Bank of America will purchase up to $10 billion of GMAC’s full spectrum of active US retail auto finance contracts. GMAC will continue to service the auto finance contracts.


The agreement expands the existing relationship between GMAC and Bank of America.
