# Buy vs Lease Equipment - 2026 Decision Guide Malaysia ## Bank Financing Makes Buying Hard Many contractors lease equipment because buying requires 10-20% down payment at banks. Banks only finance 90% of equipment value. For RM 100,000 equipment, banks want RM 10,000 to RM 20,000 down. Most choose leasing to avoid this cash outlay. Banks also reject equipment older than 5 years, limiting purchase options. ## Ing Heng Makes Buying Easy with 0% Down We provide equipment financing with 0% down payment to BUY equipment.
