Overview of the global construction equipment finance market

Technavio’s market research analyst predicts that the construction equipment finance market will grow at a steady rate of close to 10% by 2020. Due to a rise in construction projects around the globe, the need for construction equipment will be on the rise. Since many construction companies have to choose between buying or leasing equipment or putting their funds into projects, lending companies offer them options to lease equipment. As renting helps construction companies to save in taxation and also allows them to pledge the equipment as collateral, it is increasingly being preferred over buying a new equipment as operators are exempt from depreciation charges.

Due to the availability of equipment financing, construction companies are able to find cost-effective loans. Online financing is another option available to customers and helps them use available working capital efficiently.  Most companies find that signing long-term rental contracts very advantageous as they can lease only the needed equipment. As for guarantees on loans, borrowers can negotiate terms and decide on signing covenants or asset liens.  Since renting equipment helps to save on taxes and depreciation charges, construction companies from across the globe prefer to rent equipment.
