Challenge
Our client required finance for a 1996 metallic silver Agusta twin jet helicopter. Despite the aircraft’s age, it was essential for their operations, and they needed assurance that the asset could be secured without unnecessary delays or complications.
Aviation finance often presents unique challenges, and this case was no exception. The age of the helicopter posed a significant barrier, as many traditional lenders had already declined the application due to perceived asset risk. Tight timelines and the client’s operational reliance on this specific aircraft added further complexity.
Solution
Drawing on our expertise in aviation finance, we took a practical and informed approach, assessing the case on its own merits rather than relying solely on conventional criteria. Our team worked efficiently to structure a finance package that met the client’s requirements and navigated the perceived risks associated with the older asset.
Result
We successfully secured the funding, enabling the client to take delivery of the helicopter on schedule. By providing a tailored solution when others couldn’t, we helped ensure their operations continued without disruption.
At the heart of our approach is flexibility and understanding, because no two finance deals are the same, and every client deserves a solution that fits.
