Aircraft Financing
Private Jet Financing: Equity, Debt & Asset-Backed
Business aircraft are bought with cash, borrowed money or a mix. The right mix depends on your situation and your advisers’ view, and each route has its own requirements.
What it covers
The essentials
Equity (cash)
Simplest and fastest, but ties up capital.
Debt
A loan to the buyer or owning entity, assessed on the borrower’s strength.
Asset-backed
Financing secured on the aircraft itself, where the aircraft’s value and condition matter most.
Combination
Part cash, part finance, to balance cost and liquidity.
Refinancing
Replacing existing financing later in ownership.
