The difference is ownership. Under a chattel mortgage you own the asset from day one and the lender holds security over it. Under a finance lease the lender owns the asset and you pay to use it, with a residual decision at the end of the term.
Most Australian businesses buying vehicles or equipment use a chattel mortgage, because owning the asset suits how they actually use it. A lease earns its place where equipment is replaced on a cycle rather than kept, or where the accounting treatment suits the business better. Rates are broadly comparable; the structure is the real decision, and the tax treatment differs enough that it is worth a conversation with your accountant rather than a guess.
Our chattel mortgage guide sets out the comparison properly, including the honest disadvantages of each.
