The LeaseWave Captive lease management system allows companies to manage trade-in assets and their credit impact. Companies can find themselves dealing with large amounts of trade credits based on various factors, including the industry in which they operate, the type of business that they are or the type of products that they deal in, among others. The trade-in credits obtained for the assets that become obsolete needs to be tracked and accounted for appropriately. The captive leasing system allows companies to make the most efficient decisions during procurement so as to maximize the cash-flow benefits from trade-in credits.
