Finance lease global finance lease volumes rose 2

Global finance lease volumes rose 2.8% in April 2024, with Asia-Pacific markets recording the fastest growth. Companies with high exposure to such leasing models are projected to see EPS boosts, likely impacting mid-cap industrial stocks positively over the next two earnings cycles. The companies said they expect the deal to close in the first quarter of 2026 or sooner. If demand for used EVs is high at the end of your lease, resale values may be higher than expected, and it may make sense to purchase the car for the buyout value that’s written into the lease contract. “If the automaker underestimates the resale value, you can buy the car and have equity, or sell it for a profit,” says Fisher. That’s what many lessees were able to do when used-car values soared early during the pandemic. But if similar cars are selling for less than the buyout amount written into your lease—or if the new crop of EVs are better than the leased one you’re turning in—it’s smart to walk away. Finance lease demand in green energy projects surged, lifting renewable sector equities. Market dashboard metrics suggest these lease structures are improving project ROI, supportive of sustained share growth.
