Our fleet finance solutions

Agency 

This is most suitable for longer term contract hire. 

How does it work? 

  • You act as our agent by providing a lease from us to your customer.  
  • The credit risk then transfers to your customer. 
  • We can either take the full residual value risk or split the risk between us. 

Sub-let

This is more suitable for short term daily rental or contract hire.

How does it work?

  • We lease the assets to you, and then you provide a sub-lease to your customer.
  • The credit risk is with you as the lender, secured by the sub-lease contract and asset.
  • This structure is often supported by guaranteed residual value buy backs from manufacturers.
  • A charge over the sub-lease will be needed if the agreement term is over 90 days.
