Airport Equipment Leasing Specialists

Oak has always been a trusted and transparent funding partner to GSE suppliers and airport customers in the UK and Europe for over thirty years.

 We intend to move transparency even further.

Oak has over the last thirty years, supported and arranged funding for a huge variety of GSE companies, and established businesses throughout Europe.

Our appetite for transactions between 250,000 and 5,000,000, either Sterling or Euro’s is growing rapidly.

For the avoidance of doubt, for transactions of this size, we have a fixed arrangement fee of 1.5%.   This will be payable by either the manufacturer or customer on a successful activation.  To confirm, for these transactions, we will not receive a fee from the funder or bank.  

For deals over 5,000,000, the fee will be 1%.

How does this benefit you?

With total fee transparency, there is enhanced trust between all parties.  It will give you far better insight into comparing other quotations, giving you the ability to compare apples with apples, with no grey areas. 

CAPEX models are under enormous pressure.

A leasing or rental solution at the point of sale will help companies like yours beat the competition and crucially, increase your sales and profitability.

Why use a European equipment leasing company?

•   Expertise:    With over 30 years of knowledge and experience in Europe, we give you one point of contact whose expertise in differing regulations throughout European countries is crucial. Instead of dealing with multiple companies and different teams in different locations, you work with a single person, who has a broad understanding of the financial landscape in Europe.

• Cost Effective: We do all of the hard yards for you, finding the funders who best suit your equipment and customers.  This saves you valuable time and effort. By utilising us, we can offer the best rates for all types of your customers, throughout Europe. 

As we look ahead towards Q3 and Q4,  the European leasing landscape is changing. Many of the larger European mainstream banks are reverting to a sector-based focus on credit risk analysis when looking at any new business proposals, this applies also to equipment.

With funding available in 30 countries, documentation in the local language, sales support locally, and one point of contact, what more could you ask?

Certainly, the ability to arrange airport equipment leasing and finance throughout most of Europe has proved to be a valuable asset to many airports and GSE suppliers. 

  Almost all airports use leasing or finance to help them spread their payments for equipment both airside and landside. At Munich airport, one of the major landside restaurants used Oak for the refurbishment of their restaurant. We are not limited to purely GSE equipment. We can lease almost everything both airside and landside.

The challenges for any airport now are maintaining growth, safety, and profit. All of these come with a financial cost.  Capex is always under pressure, and items from improved security, through to GSE equipment airside can be placed on leasing or finance.  Therefore enable spreading the cost over an agreed period will relieve pressure on capex, and freeing up working capital for other projects.

We are able to offer a sale and lease back of your existing GSE equipment, this will enable you to free up valuable working capital locked into your existing equipment”

We would be pleased to come to either your factory or airport if you wish to discuss any funding projects that you or your customers might have.
