What is leasing:
Basically, financial leasing depends on assets. As such, it is a contract that allows a lessee (client) to utilize a fixed asset of his/her choice and one that fits his/her activity (leased object) against installments agreed upon during a certain specific period of time. The installments are paid to the bank (lessor) on the understanding that the ownership of the leased object will be transferred to the lessee automatically at the end of the contract or upon the lessee paying a certain amount of money upon the end of the contract.
Advantages of leasing:
- Finance leasing is a finance tool that allows financing of all fixed assets without a ceiling and with minimum guarantees, as the basic security is the asset and the economic feasibility
