PROFILE |
 |
When Junior breaks his leg and you can't bear to part with the velvet Elvis to pay the bill, there's World Acceptance. The consumer finance company offers small, short-term loans and related credit insurance to individuals with limited access to other sources of credit. Borrowers use the loans -- $130 to $3,000 -- to meet temporary or unanticipated cash needs, such as car repairs and medical bills. World Acceptance also sells its borrowers memberships for a third-party automobile club (in Georgia and Tennessee only) and finances electronics and small appliances through a direct-mail catalog (in seven of the 10 states in which it operates). The company has more than 410 offices, primarily in the southern US.
