Investec Bank has arranged an approximately US$870 million senior debt facility for a fund advised by BC Partners Credit, supporting a portfolio of 11 wide-body aircraft managed by FPG Amentum.
The portfolio includes Boeing 777-300ERs, Boeing 787-9s, Boeing 787-10s and an Airbus A350-900 leased to Emirates, Etihad, Singapore Airlines and another leading Middle Eastern carrier.
Investec acted as Mandated Lead Arranger and Bookrunner alongside CaixaBank and Mashreq Bank, while also serving as Swap Counterparty for the facility’s interest rate hedging. Kookmin Bank participated as Co-Arranger on part of the portfolio.
The financing structure was tailored to accommodate multiple aircraft types, varying lease terms, multi-currency revenue streams and a challenging geopolitical environment. The senior secured facility provides lease-matched financing and supports FPG Amentum’s long-term management of the assets on behalf of investors.
Dublin-based FPG Amentum is a global aviation asset manager specialising in sourcing, structuring and managing aircraft investments across a range of asset classes and strategies.
