Leasing is a new investment form that benefits entrepreneurs who seek to invest in additional capital assets. Instead of buying the assets in cash, they can approach BSL for a leasing facility. BSL will then purchase the assets selected by the entrepreneurs (lessees), and later collects lease payments, the ownership of the assets retains with BSL while the lessees make use of them.
At the maturity of the lease agreements, three alternatives are normally available to the lessees.
- Extend the contract and enjoy lower lease payments
- Acquire the leased assets from BSL at a special price
- Return the leased assets to BSL
Who may enter a leasing agreement
A juridical personal such as a limited company, a partnership, and a limited partnership.
