Chrysler may be interested in Charles Schwab.

The auto maker, which expanded its financial services activities earlier this year through the purchase of BankAmerica’s Finance America consumer lending unit, is now eyeing Charles Schwab & Co., BankAmerica’s discount brokerage subsidiary. A Schwab acquisition “is something that would make sense,” the vice chairman of Chrysler Finance said in a television interview. Ford Motor, company founder Charles Schwab and several others have also expressed interest in buying the discount stock brokerage.
