The United States was the largest equipment; this summary does not cover services national market at roughly $120 billion.2 It is estimated associated with the leasing of real property. Leasing that about 32 percent of all new capital equipment put services are provided by a variety of firms, including into service in the U.S. economy is under lease, banks, insurance companies, original equipment including computers, motor vehicles, rail cars, manufacturers, and independent firms that specialize in sophisticated medical equipment (such as body leasing.

The accounting services and architectural services two largest firms are headquartered in the United industries). Tangible personal property leasing almost States.4 always involves a written contract by which the owner of property (the lessor) grants to another (the lessee) Leasing rests on the distinction between the legal the right to possess, use, and enjoy the property for a ownership and the day-to-day use of an asset This specified period of time in exchange for periodic distinction often permits differing tax and accounting payment of a stipulated price, generally referred to as advantages to accrue to owners and users of equipment renL 1 or property, and is the historical basis of the leasing Leasing may in many instances be more industry. For example, a lessor (owner of equipment) advantageous than an outright sale to both the lessor may desire tax offsets that can be gained from and the lessee. For example, for a manufacturer-lessor, depreciation schedules on equipment it owns. A lessee in the case of a multi-year lease, it may serve as the (user of equipment), conversely, may need to finance equivalent of a sale and lead to "sales" that would not new equipment. Tax laws in many countries permit the have been made but for a lease transaction. As rental payments for leases to be deducted from taxable discussed later, it may also have tax benefits for the income as business expenses. In contrast, interest lessor. For a lessee, leasing may serve as an alternative payments on loans from banks and other traditional to seeking new bank loans (and adding to balance sheet sources may not be deductible expenses.s Similarly, debt) to finance new equipment purchases; and for new money paid by lessees for leasing equipment does not or highly-leveraged firms with high borrowing costs have to be reported in annual financial accounts in the and limited access to capital, it may serve as the least same way as money borrowed from banks.

  • Scotland Analysis: Financial Services and Banking
    Scotland analysis: financial services and banking Calculating the size of the Scottish banking sector relative to Scottish GDP The Treasury’s paper Scotland analysis: financial services and banking outlines that: • Banking sector assets for the whole UK at present are around 492 per cent of GDP. • The Scottish banking sector, by comparison, would be extremely large in the event of independence. It currently stands at around 1254 per cent of Scotland’s GDP. Data on total assets of the Scottish financial sector was provided to the Treasury by the Financial Services Authority (FSA), which was the regulator of all UK financial services firms up until 1 April 2013, when it was replaced by the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) and Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). As the paper sets out, the analysis proceeds on the basis that firms whose headquarters or principal place of business are in Scotland are to be considered ‘Scottish’ firms. Further information about where individual firms are located is available from the financial services register, which is available from www.fca.org.uk/register/ When considering groups, legal entities are treated on an individual basis, rather than the whole group being classified as either Scottish or ‘rest of the UK’. For example within RBS group, Royal Bank of Scotland PLC is treated as a Scottish firm, but National Westminster Bank PLC is treated as a ‘rest of the UK’ firm: although it is part of RBS group, it is separately authorised and headquartered in London. The regulator is not able to provide data for publication about the size of assets held by individual firms, as there are restrictions on the sharing of firm-specific regulatory data.

  • “Regulating Insurance Mediation”
    CESR’S CALL FOR EVIDENCE Provisional Mandates Financial Instruments Markets Directive Response of The Royal Bank of Scotland Group of companies ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This paper comprises our response to the above CESR request for views. Please treat our response as confidential. February 2004 2 Introduction The Royal Bank of Scotland Group welcomes the opportunity to respond to CESR’s call for evidence with regard to the Commission’s Provisional Mandates under the Directive on Financial Instruments Markets. Founded in 1727, the Royal Bank of Scotland Group is one of Europe’s leading financial services groups. The Bank is the second largest in the UK and Europe, and fifth in the world based on market capitalisation. In 2003 we were included in the Forbes A-List of the World’s best big companies for the fifth year in a row. The Group owns nationally and internationally recognised brands including Royal Bank of Scotland, NatWest, Ulster Bank (which operates in both the UK and the Republic of Ireland), Coutts, Lombard, Direct Line, Comfort Card (which operates in Europe), and Citizens Financial Group in the US. Within Europe, we have a presence in Germany, Spain, Italy, Ireland, France, Greece, Austria and Belgium, in addition to the UK. For this reason we have a very strong interest in the implementation of this directive and in providing feedback to assist CESR in its guidance to the Commission. General Comments The review of the Investment Services Directive (ISD) is clearly a cornerstone of the updated legal framework being created for the European securities markets under the Financial Services Action Plan (FSAP).
