Financial leasing services involve leasing assets to lessees for a specified period in exchange for periodic payments, with the lessor retaining ownership while the lessee uses the asset. This arrangement includes both operating and finance leases, catering to the needs of businesses and individuals for equipment, vehicles, real estate, and other assets without requiring immediate full ownership.
The main types of financial leasing services are capital leases, operating leases, and others. A capital lease is a long-term agreement where the lessee effectively gains ownership of the asset. Providers of financial leasing services include both banks and non-banks, and the various applications encompass sectors such as transportation, aviation, information technology (IT) and telecommunications, manufacturing, healthcare, construction, and more.
