Investment Assessment

#

Investment Opportunities / Rationale

Making informed investment decisions in the aviation business requires a deep understanding of market trends, financial risks, and asset valuation. Our approach ensures that every investment aligns with global aircraft market conditions, pricing models, and risk mitigation strategies. We conduct comprehensive evaluations to ensure that return expectations are met while balancing financial sustainability.

  • Pricing Model – In-depth analysis to determine the most competitive and viable pricing structures in business aviation and commercial aircraft investments.
  • Rationalised, Suitable Financial Risk & Mitigation Measures – Identifying key risk factors and implementing structured financial strategies to safeguard investments.
  • Matching Return Expectations – Aligning investment goals with market performance, ensuring sustainable and profitable asset management.

Asset / Credit Evaluation

Assessing asset value and financial stability is critical to making strategic investment decisions. We conduct thorough reviews of airline creditworthiness and operational performance to assess potential risks and opportunities in the global aircraft sector.

  • Airline Credit Review – Evaluating financial stability, historical performance, and creditworthiness of airline operators.
  • Operational Metrics Evaluation – Reviewing airline efficiency, fleet utilisation, and financial sustainability within the aviation business.
  • Risk Factor Assessment (Operation, Carrier, and Asset) – Identifying and mitigating risks associated with carriers, aircraft types, and operational environments.

Technical Evaluation

Technical due diligence is a crucial step in assessing aircraft investments. We conduct detailed inspections and analysis to ensure that maintenance status, lifecycle costs, and projected residual values align with business aviation investment strategies.

  • Maintenance Status Review – Examining current maintenance records, pending inspections, and compliance with regulatory requirements.
  • MR Status & Forecast Assessment – Evaluating maintenance reserves (MR) to predict future costs and ensure long-term asset sustainability.
  • Residual Value / Part-Out Calculation – Projecting aircraft residual value over time and assessing potential returns from part-out strategies.

Scenario Analysis

Understanding market volatility and external factors is essential for investment success in the aviation business. We employ scenario analysis to model different financial and operational conditions, ensuring preparedness for market fluctuations.

  • Stress Testing – Simulating extreme market conditions to assess asset and financial resilience in global aircraft investments.
  • Sensitivity Analysis – Evaluating how changes in lease rental factors (LRF), tenure, residual value, financing mix, and borrowing terms impact investment returns.
  • Potential Default – Identifying and mitigating risks related to airline defaults and economic downturns in the aviation business.


With a strategic, data-driven approach to investment assessment, we provide our clients with the insights needed to make informed decisions, mitigate risks, and maximise returns in the global aircraft sector.
