The report reveals an optimistic industry outlook with positive growth and
continued confidence.
Overall global annual volumes reached the US$1 trillion milestone as leasing
finally shrugged off the effects of the great recession, with growth in the
industry outperforming that of the overall economy.
North America remained top of the world's largest leasing regions, increasing
its lead on Europe, and the United States remained the world's largest leasing
market by double-digit growth.
Europe, performed well; its two largest and most mature leasing countries, UK
and Germany, continued to improve, with the UK achieving a 14% increase. The
rise within both of these markets was driven in part by auto finance.
Asia showed the fastest growth of any region; China continued its rapid rise
towards top place, expanding its leasing market by more than 25% in one year.
Business volumes were driven by infrastructure, manufacturing and a resilient
car market.
Brendan Gleeson, Group CEO said: "2016 brought some significant economic and
political events, namely Brexit and the election of Donald Trump as U.S.
president. Both events have brought short-term volatility on the global foreign
exchange and stock markets. It is too early to assess how these events impact
the economies of the world and the global leasing industry in the medium term -
but there may be some resulting economic instability in 2017."

Leasing Yearbook, which includes more than 50 country reviews, covering all
