Its strategy is to own and lease technologically-advanced, efficient and frequently-used aircraft types. SMBC Aviation Capital maintains a young fleet with an average weighted age of 4.7 years, one of the youngest in the industry.

History

The company was founded in 1994 as International Aviation Management Group by Domhnal Slattery.[3] In 2001, Royal Bank of Scotland Group acquired the company and rebranded it as Lombard Aviation Capital. The company was rebranded again in 2004 as RBS Aviation Capital.[4] By 2005, it had taken delivery of its 200th aircraft and began to build a global presence with new locations in Toulouse and Seattle, with expansion into South East Asia in 2007. 2009 saw the completion of its first export financing deal and also the location of a representative in Beijing. In 2012, it was acquired by a consortium of Japanese institutions, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC), Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing Company Limited (SMFL) and Sumitomo Corporation for $7.3 billion which was the largest ever global sale of an aircraft leasing business. The sale completed on 1 June 2012 and the business was renamed SMBC Aviation Capital.[5]

In 2014, the company placed substantial orders for new aircraft with Boeing and Airbus, representing future commitments of close to $20 billion, comprising 110 A320neo aircraft and five A321ceo aircraft from Airbus, for delivery between 2017 and 2022, and 80 B737 MAX 8 aircraft from Boeing, for delivery between 2018 and 2022. The B737 MAX deal was valued at more than $8.5 billion at list prices (although buyers typically get significant discounts).[6] The company also received its first credit ratings of BBB+ from S&P and BBB from Fitch.

In 2015, Fitch ratings upgraded the company from BBB to BBB+ making it one of the highest rated lessors in the industry. In 2015, the company also set up a €600 million revolving credit facility.

Aircraft leasing in Ireland

Ireland is a major operational base for 14 of the 15 largest aircraft leasing companies globally and the majority are headquartered there. Irish-based lessors manage over 5,000 commercial aircraft, representing more than $130 billion by asset value.[8] That represents over half of all leased aircraft worldwide and one in five of the global commercial fleet.

Leasing of aircraft began close to 40 years ago, with the foundation of ILFC in the United States and GPA in Ireland. Many of the people behind today's Irish-based leasing companies learned their trade with GPA and Ireland has a deep base of knowledge, experience and professional skill base in the sector.

Within Ireland over 1,800 are employed directly in high value added, jobs in the sector, with a further 4,500 indirect jobs created in legal, tax, accounting and other professional services.

The company is the only lessor in the industry with a graduate recruitment programme. Now in its fourth year, this programme aims to provide graduates with all of the necessary skills, knowledge and mentoring to enable them to pursue a career in this dynamic sector.

Global airline industry

The airline industry is a rapid growth sector, with half of the world's airline fleet expected to be leased by 2020, compared to 42 per cent in 2015.[9] It is also predicted that $51 billion worth of new aircraft deliveries in 2016 will be financed by aircraft lessors.
