History

The company was founded in 1997 when GMAC acquired the assets of LSI Holdings Inc.[1][2][3]

In June 1998, Tommy Pritchard was appointed president of the company.[1]

In February 2000, the company began buying contracts originated by dealers affiliated with National Auto Finance Co., as long as they met Nuvell's standards.[4]

In March 2009, the company was shut down by its parent.[5]
