Natixis expands its alternative investments
Natixis Investment Managers acquires a minority stake in a fast growing air finance business.
Natixis Investment Managers, asset management firm and the asset management arm of French bank Group BPCE, has acquired a minority stake in specialist aircraft lease and asset management firm Airborne Capital. The stake was acquired for an undisclosed sum from the existing shareholders, comprising Airborne's founding management team and FEXCO, Ireland's largest privately owned financial services company.
The deal provides Airborne with access to a worldwide asset management platform which will help to accelerate its plans to grow the business to have aircraft assets under management of over $5 billion USD within the first 5 years of operations. The transaction enables Natixis Investment Managers to continue to expand its alternative investments, specifically real assets.
Airborne was launched in November 2017. The company's strategy is to assist capital providers looking to invest in an emerging asset class in an environment where the aviation industry is set for rapid growth in fleet size, and traditional sources of bank finance are reducing. Airborne invests in aircrafts as an asset class across a number of investment strategies with the aim to generate stable, long-term, non-correlated returns.
The asset class is mobile and global by nature, and the two primary investment themes feature either the pursuit of stable long-term returns with high yield underpinned by contracted cashflows or the pursuit of a higher return strategy based on opportunistic investments driven by market dislocations.
