Whilst recovery from the global pandemic is on the horizon, the outlook for airlines and aircraft lessors remain challenging: payment deferrals and waivers remain commonplace, and many airlines are having to consider starting an insolvency process.

In our latest webinar, our team of subject matter experts discussed the latest issues affecting aviation asset management and sought to provide some practical guidance for financiers and lessors.

The session covered:

  • Airline insolvency issues: latest developments
  • Repossession activity increasing?
  • Considerations for new investors
  • Appetite of traditional aircraft financiers
  • LIBOR update
  • BREXIT update
