Vehicle funding: Sale and leaseback
Move over to worry-free fleet funding
For many businesses, sale and leaseback offers a transformation in the way they approach their fleet – and it could be the ideal solution for you.
Sale and leaseback – also known as purchase and leaseback – is a quick, simple and efficient way for businesses of all sizes to release the true value of their fleets.
In essence, a company sells its owned vehicles to Arval, but continues to use them under the terms of a leasing agreement. This is most often Contract Hire, currently the most popular fleet funding mechanism, and can include Maintenance, Breakdown Cover, Accident Management and a range of other added value options.
We’ll help you look carefully at whether Sale and Leaseback is appropriate for you, but the advantages are numerous – including a cash injection, improved cashflow, more suitable balance sheet treatment of the fleet, removal of residual risk, easy monthly payments through a single invoice, and more.
This can also be the ideal time to conduct a wider fleet health check review, that includes all the key aspects of your fleet operations, including electrification strategy, enabling you to identify and meet your present and future fleet objectives.
