The BVRLA is hosting the conference on 2 July, bringing together industry leaders, policymakers, and fleet professionals to discuss the key issues shaping the future of rental and leasing.

The BVRLA has launched an additional way for members to customise training to better fit their teams' needs. The new ‘Pick and Mix’ option lets members adapt course content to suit their business.

Francesca De Cozar, from the Learning and development team at the BVRLA looks at how the industry views leadership, talent, and gender diversity and highlights the need to show women that they're not alone, their voices matter and their aspirations are valid and achievable.

The leasing sector held its ground in 2024 in the face of changeable consumer confidence, growing a modest 0.65% year on year. Budgetary constraints and economic uncertainty took hold of some segments, causing demand to go in different directions between personal and business contracts, with a similar divergence between vans (volume down 10.96%) and cars (up 4.9%).
