Artegy Sale and Leaseback

If you own your commercial vehicle fleet it represents a substantial amount of capital tied up in high cost depreciating assets. Whilst they are enabling the business to function, the cost of the investment does not generate a return.

By purchasing your fleet and leasing it back to you on a contract hire basis, Artegy Sale and Leaseback will release the capital value of your fleet and provide you with a cash injection to invest back into your core business and generate a positive return.

In the current climate of economic uncertainty, low interest rates and the desire to focus on core activities, many companies are re-evaluating their policy of outright purchase for vehicle acquisition. The key objective is to ensure that they are utilising the most cost-effective solution to meet their financial objectives.

Issues to consider if you currently own your fleet:

• The advantages of off balance sheet funding to improve financial ratios such as the return on capital employed or the companies gearing.



• The benefit of predictable monthly commercial fleet expenditure to aid cost control and budgeting.



• The opportunity to insulate the business from the risks associated with commercial vehicle residual values and increasing maintenance costs.



• The ability to substantially reduce in-house fleet administration.

If these issues are relevant to your business, one option you should evaluate is the sale and leaseback of your existing fleet.
