Sale-and-lease-back
A method employed by companies and governments to raise cash. It involves the sale of an asset (for example a building, a factory, or a public services company) to an investor for cash, combined with a long term lease contract that generates monthly or annual payments to that investor. This method generates short term cash, but creates additional liabilities in the future, which typically are not accounted for.
