Legal Survey and Rising Stars deadline extended


The deadline for Airfinance Journal's Legal Survey and Rising Stars awards has been extended to 18 April, 2017.

Law firms are asked to submit their 2016 deals and Rising Stars to Airfinance Journal  to be included in its annual legal guide.

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.  More information can be found on Rising Stars here.

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 see if your deals are already featured or to  take a free trial of Deal Tracker, please follow this link.
