The Equipment Leasing & Finance Foundation's Q4 update to its 2015 Equipment Leasing & Finance U.S. Economic Outlook reports that investment in equipment and software is expected to grow 4.1% in 2015, which is down from the 5% growth forecast in its Q3 Update to the 2015 Annual Outlook released in July. The new report predicts that after a slow start to the year, equipment investment will pick up during the second half of 2015. The Economic Outlook, which is focused on the $903 billion equipment leasing and finance industry, forecasts 2015 equipment investment and capital spending in the United States and evaluates the effects of various industry and external factors likely to affect growth over the next 12 months.
According to William G. Sutton, CAE, President of the Foundation and President and CEO of the Equipment Leasing and Finance Association (ELFA), “This outlook is consistent with data from the Foundation's Monthly Confidence Index and ELFA's Monthly Leasing and Finance Index, which both indicate solid industry performance. Capital spending is expected to outpace GDP growth again this year, and the investments made by U.S. businesses are increasingly reliant on financing solutions.”
