Geography

2025

Risks

Triton is exposed to cyclical container demand, lease-rate pressure, and customer decisions to buy rather than lease equipment. Because its business is tied to global trade, it also faces geopolitical, tariff, and supply-chain disruptions, along with counterparty, residual value, and financing risks.
