Frequently Asked Questions

Aircraft financing involves unique considerations like aircraft ownership structures, complex tax documentation, regulatory compliance and specialized insurance requirements. Unlike standard equipment, aircraft retain significant value and require insight into aviation markets, registration processes and international considerations.
We finance the full range of corporate aircraft — small, medium and large cabin jets, turboprop aircraft, and helicopters for VIP, EMS, and transport use. We also handle new construction orders and fractional ownership financing, so multiple parties can access private aviation without the full cost and commitment.
Aircraft financing rates vary based on factors like aircraft type and age, your credit profile and market conditions. Our aircraft team can provide current rate information and help structure terms that work for your specific situation.
Aircraft financing preserves your working capital for core business operations while still giving you access to the aircraft you need. Your aircraft is an asset that can be efficiently financed or leased, freeing up cash resources for opportunities that drive your business forward.
