Asset Focus
The main asset focus of Lendicate is the financing of business aviation jets.
Business Jets
Business jet financing is not a typical financing product offered by commercial banks due to forced sale value considerations which means full capital needs to be allocated by the bank as such loans are treated as unsecured loans. This is the reason why only the private banks offer business jet financings with a larger than usual minimum asset under management (AUM) requirement.
There is a common misconception that financing business jets is akin to financing commercial airlines. Commercial and business jets are aircraft indeed, however, the main risk of a business jet financing transaction is the credit risk of the obligor parties who are typically from diverse and different industries that have nothing to do with commercial or business aviation.
