Mode de financement imaginé par deux banquiers suisses qui se distingue du crédit-bail en ce que les primes payées par le client dépendent de l'utilisation effective du matériel fourni ou des bénéfices réalisés grâce à ce matériel. Le "parenting "(marque déposée en Suisse) tire son nom fantaisiste du principe de base établi :"Paiement d’après la rentabilité". "Renting" n’ a donc pas ici le seul sens habituel de location. Si le mot "parenting" est une marque déposée, il convient toutefois de donner à ce mode de financement, qui peut être appelé à se développer, une dénomination générique.(dans les cas sans ambiguïté). 1, record 1, French, - cr%C3%A9dit%2Dbail%20modul%C3%A9
