Capabilities

Every comparison a buyer needs before they decide

Loan vs leasing comparison

Place a standard marine loan and a Malta leasing structure side by side — same vessel, same buyer, full cost difference surfaced.

LTV sensitivity analysis

See how changing the deposit level affects monthly payments, total interest cost, and five-year total outlay across any scenario.

Ownership structure modelling

Model the financing implications of personal ownership, Maltese SPV, and other structures — including how each affects lender appetite and LTV.

Five-year cost projection

Every scenario includes a full five-year cost model — interest, principal, VAT, leasing fees, and admin costs — so the true comparison is visible.

Why it matters

The right structure isn't obvious until you model it

On a €2 million vessel over 16 metres, the Malta leasing structure saves approximately €250,000 in effective VAT versus a standard purchase. That number is not obvious without running the model. Most buyers — and many brokers — don't know it until it's explained with the figures in front of them.

Scenario modelling makes the invisible visible. The right decision is the one made with full information.
