The international vehicle leasing company reported that it finished 2013 with a fleet of 1,008,840 vehicles and annual growth of 5.6%. 

The achievement comes just over a decade after entering the market in the European vehicle-leasing sector. 

The ALD Automotive brand was launched in 2003 with the acquisition of Deutsche Bank’s vehicle leasing activities. Today, ALD reports that it is the second largest vehicle leasing company in Europe and the third largest worldwide, offering products that include full-service leasing and fleet management to corporate and government bodies and individual consumers. ALD also says it’s the market leader in white label leasing partnerships via a number of vehicle manufacturers and banking organisations. 

The firm is now present in 37 countries, with an additional three operations in North America through a partnership with Wheels.
