Equipment Lease Financing for Native American Indian Tribes and Tribal-Owned Enterprises

Some of the lease financing options that are available include: Lease Terms: From 24 to 60 months Payment Options: Monthly, Quarterly or Semi-Annual Payments End of Term Options: $1 Buy-Out, 10% Residual or 20% Residual
Tax-Exempt Financing for Tribal Operations
The equipment must be essential to tribal operations, whether it’s office type equipment for the tribal administrative office, a bus for the tribal school, a forklift for the road department, medical equipment for the tribal hospital, etc.
Essential use is usually considered tax-exempt under IRS guidelines. This means the interest the tribe pays does not have to be reported to the IRS by the lender, thus reducing the rate to the tribal entity.
Note: Our finance documents do not include a Limited Waiver of Sovereign Immunity.
