Equipment Solutions
for African Markets
We provide customers with the use of equipment through a variety of programs, such as EASE® (Equipment-as-a-Service) in the Healthcare, ICT and Agricultural markets. We allow our customers to pay for the use of the equipment from the cash flows the equipment helps generate.
We aim to build sustainable and profitable businesses in the equipment-as-a-service, equipment rental and equipment leasing industries. In doing so, we enable long-term, sustainable growth, help accelerate economic activity, create hundreds of thousands of jobs and generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our investors and lenders. And we bridge the gap between capital markets with ample liquidity and emerging markets in need of solutions for equipment-as-a-service, equipment leasing, and asset backed financing. AAFC is a privately owned US corporation, with its main office in New York.
How We Work
Our companies offer a variety of standard and customized equipment-as-a-service and equipment leasing options to qualifying customers, typically in partnership with Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and their local partners.
Our companies primarily write contracts on their own balance sheet or on the balance sheets of funds we manage. We occasionally act as a broker.
