Airfinance Journal has launched its legal survey this week.

Law firms are asked to submit their 2016 deals to Airfinance Journal by April 10 2017 to be included in its annual legal survey.

Airfinance Journal will provide a detailed report on the legal aviation finance markets which will highlight the most active law firms by a) region and b) product type, based on the number of deals signed in 2016. 

The product types that will be considered as valid nominations include:

  • Commercial loan
  • Capital markets
  • Export credit
  • Operating lease
  • Structured lease
  • Sale and purchase of aircraft

Novations of leases will not be counted as submissions unless there is a financing or sale and purchase transaction involved.

The results of the survey will be presented in Airfinance Journal's Guide to Aviation Lawyers 2017, available from the beginning of June.

Call for submissions

Law firms are invited to download a submission form here to record the 2016 deals which they advised on.

The more deals a law firm submits, the higher its chance will be of featuring prominently either by region or by product type.

We understand that law firms are keen to observe confidentiality, but many of the deals are already public and exist in Airfinance Journal's Deal Tracker. To take a free trial of the tracker in order to see if your deals are already featured, please follow this link.

Please send completed submission forms to Jack Dutton at Jack.Dutton@euromoneyplc.com. For any queries on the survey please call +44 207 779 8734.

For any queries regarding logins, or for a free trial for the Deal Tracker, please contact Chris Welding on +44 20 7779 8015.
