We are the voice of leasing and automotive rental in Europe

The Leaseurope Council of Secretaries Generals recently gathered in Brussels for an impactful meeting, providing a valuable platform for leaders from leasing European associations to come together and engage in fruitful discussions. The meeting covered a wide range of topics, reflecting the diverse and evolving landscape of the leasing industry. Here are some key highlights from the meeting:

In collaboration with Asset Finance Connect, Leaseurope and Eurofinas organised roundtables to discuss the challenges and opportunities presented by Scope 3 reporting in the asset finance industry. With new sustainability regulations and market expectations driving the adoption of ESG considerations, asset finance providers are actively supporting clients in decarbonization efforts across sectors such as transportation and IT. However, gathering consistent emissions data remains a challenge, particularly for Scope 3 reporting. Government goals, public procurement, and evolving standards further complicate the landscape. Despite uncertainties, participants expressed confidence in the industry's ability to adapt and highlighted the importance of software tools in streamlining data collection and reporting processes. Adaptation is essential for asset finance providers to thrive in current and future markets.
