The rental cost index for Q2 2023 has risen by 6.35% over the past 12 months. According to the DLR federation, which represents rental companies in particular, this increase can be explained by several factors. Depreciation and amortization expenses and personnel costs accounted for 27.7% and 22.4% respectively. These two items thus account for more than half of the change in Q2 2023. Financial expenses also weigh significantly on the increase.
With this index, now produced quarterly by Neo Engineering on behalf of the DLR federation, the aim is to enable rental companies to monitor changes in their costs, and to integrate this index into their commercial approach.
