The consolidation of the leasing industry has been highlighted as one of the major themes for 2026 and in this issue we look at the first major confirmed move in this regards - DAE's successful bid for Macquarie AirFinance. This will result in the creation of a third lessor with an aircraft portfolio exceeding 1,000 aircraft with further tie-ups likely considering the strong interest expressed in the Macquarie AirFinance business. We also look at investment firm Flexpoint Ford's partnership with lessor Genesis as it targets the opportunities in the mid-life and end-of-life segment of the aircraft leasing market. We also feature a rare aviation sector Samurai loan, a round-up of major banking deals amongst lessors and the implications of new reporting standards for lessors and investors.
