Intesa Leasing, part of Banca Intesa Beograd, continues to improve its operations by introducing a new product in its offer - operating lease.

Banca Intesa was the first to contract this service with Intesa Leasing, thus securing a new, fully electric vehicle for its fleet, the Mercedes-Benz EQA. Thereby we jointly confirmed our commitment to applying ESG principles in our business, which we are guided by as part of the Intesa Sanpaolo parent group.

"This innovation represents an important step in the strategic development of our business and enables the expansion of the offer while providing additional benefits to our customers." Our commitment remains on the same track – we provide the highest quality, support and innovative solutions that improve the business of all our users. We believe that operating lease will very soon become a significant support in the business of legal entities, ensuring simplicity, flexibility and savings", said Bojan Erak director of the Product Management and Sales Department of Intesa Leasing, Head of the Product Management and Sales Department of Intesa Leasing.

The new product is designed to meet the needs of modern business, offering legal entities unique flexibility and efficiency in asset management. It allows clients to use the leased item with a monthly commitment that is recorded as an expense (OpEx), without creating new debt in the company's balance sheets.

 "The cooperation between the Bank and the Intesa Leasing team, which resulted in the acquisition of a second electric vehicle in the fleet, is part of a wider joint initiative for the promotion of green technologies and sustainable business on the local market, in accordance with global trends and the group's ESG agenda. With the full support of colleagues of the Intesa Leasing team in further expanding the portfolio of services and strengthening representation on the local market, we will continue in the coming months with this initiative through a joint promotional campaign aimed at the Bank's most important clients," said Igor Ivanović, director of the logistics sector.

The vehicle was acquired through a long-term partner of the Intesa Leasing company, Emil Frey Auto Center.
