Global Jet Capital (GJC) is celebrating its 10th anniversary at NBAA-BACE in Las Vegas this week. Founded in 2014, the company has established itself in the business aircraft financing space, offering tailored financial solutions for clients across the globe.&nbsp;
“NBAA-BACE has always provided our industry a unique opportunity to interact with a broad spectrum of clients, intermediaries, and influencers. I can’t think of a better place to celebrate our 10th anniversary this year than at NBAA-BACE in Las Vegas,” said Vivek Kaushal, the company's CEO.
Since it was founded, GJC has exceeded $4 billion in aircraft financing originations, facilitating transactions for both new and preowned aircraft. The company's growth has been marked by milestones such as the acquisition of GE Capital’s business aircraft portfolio in 2015 and the issuance of the first asset-backed securitization (ABS) backed solely by business jet operating leases and loans in 2018. GJC completed its eighth ABS offering in September, bringing total securitized assets to approximately $5.8 billion.
Kaushal expressed gratitude for the company’s success over the past decade, stating, “We remain steadfast in our determination to deliver structures and solutions that satisfy the exacting standards of our sophisticated client base.” Looking ahead, GJC aims to continue its leadership in aircraft financing and is optimistic about future growth.

Issues regarding financing of aircraft; aviation insurance; tax issues for aircraft operators; new companies and people in the aviation financing and insurance industries.
