Webinar 3: Deep Dive into Fleet Funding Models
When: 12pm, 25 November 2025 (AEDT)
Join us for our last webinar of the year and our series – Understanding the Dollars and Cents of Fleet.
In this webinar, the team at WLC will explore the various models for funding fleets, including leasing, novated leases, car allowances, financing, subscriptions, cash and more. The team will compare the different models, discuss the implications for finance teams, and address topics such as GST.
Considering different fleet funding models is important because the way a fleet is financed can have a direct impact on cost efficiency, cash flow, risk exposure, and long-term flexibility for organisations.
Ensuring you consider your wider company strategy and business objectives is vital to successfully fund your fleet.
In this webinar, we’ll discuss:
-
- Market update
- The various ways to fund fleets
- How to compare funding models
- Organisational impacts
