The result is that we’ve been able to add a new-tech widebody with one of the world’s leading airlines to our fleet, and also to provide attractive risk adjusted returns to our investment partners. Aergo is a longstanding and valued client of our business, and we look forward to building on our track record with them in the near future.”
Fred Browne, Chief Executive Officer at Aergo Capital, said: “We are thrilled to complete the sale of our Boeing 787-10 on lease to Singapore Airlines to our friends at Investec. As always both Singapore Airlines and Investec were highly professional partners in this transaction, resulting in a smooth closing process.
