Education and Public Sector Finance
What is Education Asset Finance?
Education asset finance is usually in the form of an operating lease that enables schools, academies, and other educational institutions to acquire the equipment they need to operate and function effectively.
Unlike traditional loans, education asset finance does not require the lessee to make any down payments or monthly repayments.
Instead, the lessor pays for the equipment upfront and then leases it to the educational institution for an agreed-upon period of time, typically three to five years.
At the end of the lease term, the educational institution has the option to purchase the equipment outright or return it to the lessor.

- Technology Finance: There are constant improvements to technology, and keeping on top of it can often be costly, with-it companies often switching off support for those systems that haven’t been updated.
- Operating lease: A finance lease is simply renting the asset over an agreed period, and you usually remain responsible for the maintenance.
