The senior loan was arranged by DVB Bank and Korean Development Bank, who are also the lenders together with the Development Bank of Japan in this landmark transaction. Clifford Chance acted as advisers for Nordic Aviation Capital and Nishimura & Asahi for FPG whilst Allen & Overy represented the banks.
