Emphasis on value creation options for active asset management

The aviation asset class differs significantly from other asset classes such as real estate, shares, or commodities. Due to the highly competitive investment environment which often displays low and even negative interest rates, the aviation asset class has been attracting attention. The effective management of an aircraft portfolio can yield high returns by optimizing the performance of the investment product; it can also mitigate asset-specific risk factors. This, in turn, protects the investors from the risk of global economic fluctuations. Usually, several long-term liabilities are associated with a typical portfolio of insurance products. However, the aviation asset class can reduce the equity set-aside requirement as it is often subjected to diversification; this benefits the asset owner. This tends to encourage potential investors to explore the market.

VAT exemption associated factors to influence aircraft leasing

The implementation of VAT on aircraft leasing in Europe depends on the mode of operation of the operator or the carrier. It also depends on several other indirect factors such as the VAT imposed on jet fuel. In the European region, certain regulations project removal of VAT as applicable on Jet A-1 fuel purchases for both charter (non-scheduled commercial) and private non-revenue business flights. However, the regulation has not been generalized across Europe, that is, the exemption rules vary from country to country.
