About BRED Cofilease

BRED Cofilease is a leasing provider focused on financing professional equipment, delivered through BRED Banque Populaire’s network and vendor partners, with solutions that typically include finance leases (crédit-bail mobilier), operating leases/long-term rental, and lease with purchase option depending on the asset and use case. It targets professionals, SMEs, and larger companies seeking to fund equipment such as IT and office systems, medical and dental devices, industrial machinery, point-of-sale and printing equipment, and similar assets; vehicle financing may be available depending on the arrangement and sector. Contracts generally run over multi‑year terms with fixed rentals, and end‑of‑term choices vary by structure (purchase at a predetermined price in a finance lease or LOA, or return/extend in operating rental). Pricing is quote-based rather than published, and depends on asset type, amount financed, term, residual value assumptions, and the customer’s credit profile; documentation fees, insurance for the asset, potential security deposits or guarantees, and early termination or return-condition costs can apply. The onboarding path typically goes through a relationship manager or vendor program, with standard documentation such as recent financial statements, identification, and a supplier quote; approval times are not standardized publicly. As with any lease, lessees are generally responsible for maintenance, insurance, and compliance with return conditions for rental formats, and early exit can be costly. The offer suits firms prioritizing cash‑flow smoothing and preservation of bank credit lines for working capital, but the total cost versus cash purchase or a classic loan should be modeled, and the accounting and tax treatment depends on the customer’s regime; confirmation with an accountant is prudent. In scope and positioning, BRED Cofilease competes with other bank‑affiliated equipment lessors in France and is relevant for businesses looking to finance assets closely tied to their operations.
