How are lender priorities in aviation finance shifting across the globe? As Basel IV prompts European banks to rethink their strategies, are they narrowing their focus or simply changing the way they engage with the sector? Meanwhile, are banks and alternative lenders across APAC poised to fill any gaps and drive new growth, or are they facing their own constraints? This session will explore these questions, compare regional approaches, and consider what the evolving appetite of lenders means for the future of aviation finance.

  • Has Basel IV changed banks' risk appetite in aviation finance? Is this different for European and Asian lenders?
  • Has this changed the borrowers and asset lenders are targetting? Are the same credits still financeable as before? 
  • How are Asian banks trying to grow their business in the sector?
  • Is the competitive dynamic between Asian and European lenders evolving? How will this play out over the next 2-3 years?
