Financing of
rail vehicles

Rail vehicles are acquired on behalf of our owners and thereafter leased out to them. The owners who place orders for rail vehicles through AB Transitio are required to provide a standard guarantee for AB Transitio's undertaking. This is done by the owner in question issuing a legally binding guarantee commitment. If appropriate, the owners may also arrange the financing themselves.
