DBP LEASING CORPORATION

What is Leasing?

Leasing is a form of medium-term financing suitable for acquiring assets such as machinery, equipment, vehicles, vessels and even buildings. It begins with the customer, or lessee, choosing the specific type of asset, which the leasing company then buys from the customer‘s preferred vendor then leases to the customer. The lease generally requires a minimal up-front cash outlay of 10-20% from the lessee in the form of a guaranty deposit. And depending on the type and durability of the asset, the lease term may run from 2-10 years, allowing the lessee unrestricted use while paying the rentals during much of the asset’s useful life. At the end of the lease, the lessee is given options on the disposal of the leased asset.

If you are in a highly competitive industry that demands frequent changes in technology, or when budget constraints prevent you from buying capital asset, leasing can make it easy and convenient for you to acquire that much needed asset, when you need it.
