LEASING

What is Leasing

A contractual agreement between the leasing company (the lessor) and the client (the lessee), under which the lessor purchases and owns the asset based on the lessee’s request. The lessee uses the asset for a predetermined period in exchange for fixed rental payments in some cases, or variable payments in other cases.
Leasing is the most widespread financing activity in over 80 countries worldwide, especially in the United States. It ranks third in financing prevalent investments in Europe and Canada, and the percentage in Asia reaches 28%.

It is a non-cancellable contractual relationship with full payments, where the lessee is responsible for certain services such as maintenance costs, taxes, and insurance. The ownership of the asset remains with the lessor until the rental payments are fully paid or the asset is transferred to the lessee at the end of the term for a nominal fee (e.g., 1 pound), allowing the lessee the option to purchase the asset during the financing period (the lessee has the right to choose to purchase the asset).

Types Of Leasing

Direct leasing

Direct leasing is one of the unconventional sources of medium and long-term investment financing in which it is transferred to the user (the lessee) the right to use a specific asset owned by the lessor under a contractual agreement between the two parties in return for periodic payments for a specified period of time and the tenant at the end of the period may purchase the leased asset

Sale and Lease Back

Consequently, the company continues to use this productive asset in its activity and simultaneously obtains a cash from the sale of the asset to finance its working capital, in return the lessor/ Company pays the rental value of the leased asset over several future years.

At the end of the contract the Ownership of the asset will return to the original owner.
