Aviation Deal Structuring & Syndication

Handle structures and syndicates aviation transactions for owners, lessors, lenders, and family capital operating in and through the UAE. We align aircraft, engines, leases, and credit with enforceable documentation, jurisdictional clarity, and bankable cashflow profiles.

From single-aircraft placements to fleet-level refinancing and secondary market exits, we control the interface between law, capital, and aviation regulation. Leasing covenants are engineered, security is perfected, and syndicates are coordinated under one accountable execution mandate.

Aviation is a capital-intensive, cross-border, and regulator-exposed asset class. Transactions fail when legal structure, security, and commercial terms do not integrate into a single, enforceable framework.

Handle leads aviation deals with an execution model that unifies jurisdiction selection, security perfection, syndicate alignment, and cashflow design. The outcome is simple: bankable structures, controlled timelines, and predictable enforcement routes.

• End-to-end aviation transaction leadership from term sheet to closing and post-closing actions
• Integration of Cape Town Convention, local registries, and contractual enforcement mechanics
• Structuring across airlines, lessors, OEMs, MROs, and private capital platforms
• Debt, equity, and hybrid instruments aligned with fleet strategy and residual value risk
• Experience across GCC, European, Asian, and offshore holding jurisdictions
• Mandates built around continuity of operations, capital protection, and recoverability

We structure aviation transactions for enforceability, bankability, and operational continuity, from initial term sheets to final closing and beyond. Every mandate is built around jurisdictional clarity, perfected security, and aligned capital.

Our role spans legal architecture, financing and syndication design, document negotiation, and closing execution, giving boards and capital providers controlled exposure to aviation assets.

• Deal architecture: asset diligence, counterparty mapping, and transaction structuring
• Lease and finance term sheet design with robust covenants and default mechanics
• Security package design: mortgages, assignments, guarantees, and account controls
• Coordination of Cape Town filings, local aircraft registry, and ancillary registrations
• Syndication strategy: investor packs, capital stack design, and allocation mechanics
• Refinancing, restructuring, novation, and exit pathway planning across jurisdictions
