KBC Lease Holding simplifies group structure
Monday, February 3, 2014 —
KBC Lease Holding is currently simplifying its group structure and making it more transparent. The project is part of the holding company's continued commitment to critically review its services, business processes and activities in order to improve efficiency and provide an even better service to its clients. KBC Lease Holding's decision to change the focus of its strategy to the core market of Belgium in 2009 reduced the commercial base of its leasing business and also meant that the business model had to be redefined.
More specifically, this entails KBC Lease Holding NV being incorporated into KBC Bank NV and – in a later phase – KBC Lease Belgium into KBC Bank NV. The project will probably be completed in the second half of 2016. KBC Autolease NV and Immolease NV will remain autonomous entities owned by KBC.
The benefits of the synergy created in this way will be primarily of an internal organisational nature. Integrating the entities will not have any major implications for staffing levels or the activities of the relevant companies. It will not change anything for clients, either. Their contracts will continue to run and their dedicated contacts will remain unchanged.
Transferring the leasing activities to KBC Bank will give clients access to a completely integrated range of leasing and corporate loan products. This includes large corporate clients whose specific financing requirements could not always be met in full by KBC Lease.
