PLANO, Texas, April 3, 2026 — Toyota Financial Services (TFS) has announced that Scott Cooke, its president and chief executive officer, will retire on June 30, 2026, following more than twenty years of exceptional service. Alec Hagey, currently an executive advisor at TFS, has been named as his successor and will take on the president and CEO roles starting April 6, 2026.
Cooke has guided TFS with a consistent emphasis on financial stability, operational excellence, and value for customers. Since joining the company in 2003, he has served in various leadership capacities across finance, risk, operations, and treasury. As president and CEO, he managed all financial and operational activities, contributing to the expansion of the firm’s insurance and finance capabilities, the improvement of product offerings, and the strengthening of support for Lexus and Toyota dealers and customers throughout the U.S.
“Scott’s leadership was vital in developing Toyota Financial Services into the robust, customer-centric organization it is today,” stated Mark Templin, Toyota Motor North America’s chief operating officer. “His work has left a permanent mark on our company, our partners, and our employees.”
Hagey brings over 36 years of Toyota experience and a successful history in marketing, sales, operations, and financial services. In his role as senior vice president and chief operating officer, he oversaw sales and marketing for TFS and Lexus Financial Services (LFS), including remarketing, dealer relations, voluntary protection products, and significant digital and mobility initiatives.
“Alec’s extensive experience and deep-rooted relationships within the organization make him the ideal leader to steer TFS forward,” Templin added. “He has a thorough understanding of our business, our dealers, and our customers, and is well-prepared to build upon the solid foundation Scott created.”
To facilitate an orderly transition, Scott will continue as an executive advisor, providing support to the Americas Oceania Region (AOR) of Toyota Financial Services Corporation.
“I am honored to have been a part of Toyota Financial Services and am proud of our team’s collective accomplishments,” said Cooke. “I have complete confidence in Alec and the leadership team to continue serving our dealers and customers effectively.”
