This note updates figures published in September 1985 Bulletin.
The statistics in the table measure the contribution to fixed investment of assets purchased for leasing out; they cover investment in such assets by monetary sector institutions, by finance houses outside the monetary sector, and by specialist finance leasing subsidiaries (or associates) of these institutions and of other companies. By far the greater part of the expenditure is on assets to be leased out under finance leases, but expenditure by these companies on assets for leasing out on other terms is also included. The figures exclude business transacted in non-owned assets..
