CORPLEASE

What CORPLEASE does

CORPLEASE (Corporate Leasing Company Egypt, S.A.E.) is an Egyptian financial leasing company established in January 2004 with authorized capital of EGP 270 million and currently managed as a subsidiary of CI Capital Holding (87.5% stake, with Managing Director Tarek Azmy holding 12.5%). The company provides asset finance and leasing solutions to Egyptian corporations, SMEs, fleet operators, vendors, and government entities across commercial real estate, plant and machinery, transportation, IT, office equipment, and fleet management. Its service architecture spans three lease structures — Finance Lease (fixed-term, capitalizing on lessee balance sheet with EGP 1 buyout option), Operating Lease (off-balance-sheet, with extend/return/refresh flexibility), and Sale-and-Leaseback (capital release against existing assets) — packaged into four product lines: Corporate Finance, Fleet Operations, Vendor Finance, and Technology Leasing (IT Operating Lease). Lease terms range from 12 to 84 months with 100% financing covering delivery, taxes, installation, and training.

The company operates a relationship-manager-led enterprise field sales motion supported by three Egyptian branches (Smart Village/Giza HQ, New Cairo, Alexandria) and a wholly-owned UAE subsidiary, CORPLEASE Emirates Ltd., at DIFC Dubai for GCC cross-border lease finance in local and foreign currency. Revenue is generated through recurring monthly lease payments (subscription-style), transaction fees on sale-and-leaseback, and ancillary fleet services. The company runs a proprietary securitization program through its wholly-owned SPV, Egyptian Securitization Company (ESC), which issued Egypt's first lease-backed securitization in 2008 and has since executed multiple transactions, including a near US$100 million instrument awarded 'Best Securitization Deal in EMEA' by EMEA Finance. As of the most recent disclosures, CORPLEASE manages a LE 9.2 billion portfolio across 26,350 leased assets and 4,650 active contracts with a 97%+ collection rate, employing approximately 180 staff.

Revenue model

1. Finance Lease: Fixed-term (and usually non-cancelable) lease similar to a loan agreement for purchase of a capital asset on installments. The lessee pays all costs including insurance, maintenance, and taxes. The lessee capitalizes the lease by recognizing an asset and liability.
2. Operating Lease: Shorter-term rental arrangement where the lessor retains ownership of the asset and expects to sell in second-hand market or re-lease. Payments are made for use of the asset with off-balance-sheet treatment for the lessee.
3. Sale and Leaseback: Transaction where a company sells legally owned equipment to CORPLEASE and leases it back for a period acceptable to both parties, enabling businesses to free up capital through sale of assets.
