Definition

A Synthetic Lease is a financial arrangement that allows a company to lease an asset while maintaining the benefits of ownership for tax purposes, such as depreciation, without having the asset appear on the balance sheet as a liability. This structure is typically used for real estate or large equipment to improve financial ratios by keeping debt off the balance sheet.
