Who We Are

We are Ally — a family of companies with a rich history and a new approach.

In 1919, Ally Financial Inc. started out as General Motors Acceptance Corporation in the U.S. and in the same year, a branch office was opened in Canada. In 1953, General Motors Acceptance Corporation of Canada, Limited was created to continue to provide auto finance products to dealers and consumers in Canada.

As years turned to decades, we added more products and services and expanded to other countries.

Now, in Canada there are a number of subsidiaries of Ally Financial Inc.

Ally Credit Canada Limited offers retail automotive financing products and ResMor Trust Company offers Ally online savings products. Through a joint venture, the company also offers personal lines insurance products in Canada through SmartCoverage Insurance. Motors Insurance Corporation, Ally's insurance subsidiary in Canada, underwrites vehicle service contracts for GM of Canada, Subaru Canada and Suzuki Canada.
