An introduction to leasing

By taking advantage of CITY-LEASING Zrt’s financial leasing products, your business can get access to financing simply and quickly, under fair and favorable conditions.

This financing structure involves us purchasing the object of leasing selected by our Clients with the purpose of transferring its rights of use to the lessee in exchange for a lease payment.
