AVIATION FINANCE

The airline world is currently experiencing an almost unprecedented period of uncertainty. Even more in the current context, airlines, lessors, lenders and investors face continuous challenges, whether it is while coping with a difficult market, while looking for the best possible financing, while considering to restructure an existing fleet, while validating their business model or while intending to get a solid grip on their risks.
