However, at present, the receipt of borrowed funds from banks by companies in Russia is limited by a number of reasonable reasons: the distrust of banks in businesses due to their nontransparency, instability of the proceeds, lack of collateral. As a result, all this leads to higher interest rates. In this light, the use of leasing acquires additional benefits, among its main advantages. The paper explores relevant scientific discussions regarding the use of leasing as an instrument for financing fixed assets modernization projects in Russia.
