Deutsche Bank (DB) Buys Aviation Loans Portfolio From NORD/LB
Read MoreHide Full Article
Deutsche Bank AG (DB - Free Report) has acquired loans worth €1.67 billion ($1.77 billion) from Norddeutsche Landesbank’s (“NORD/LB”) aircraft financing portfolio of €2.75 billion. The deal is expected to close in the second half of 2024, subject to approval from the antitrust authorities.
The purchase price of the deal has been kept under wraps.
The loans were acquired through a competitive bidding process and are backed by commercial passenger aircraft.
The loan portfolio is being taken over by DB’s Global Credit Financing & Solutions unit, which holds a diversified lending portfolio, comprising renewable energy finance, energy transition finance, infrastructure and transportation finance and asset backed financing.
NORD/LB has been an active player in the aircraft financing business for more than 40 years. Its current portfolio includes approximately 300 financed aircraft and engines. By selling the majority of its aircraft financing portfolio to Deutsche Bank, NORD/LB is seeking to shift its focus to renewable energy financing sectors.
Ross Duncan, co-head of the global transportation finance team at Deutsche Bank, said, “This deal plays to our strengths and our deep experience in this sector. It is an opportunity for us to acquire high quality loans with an attractive return profile.”
DB’s previous efforts to grow inorganically include the acquisition of Numis, which was completed in October 2023. The deal with Numis is expected to support the bank’s Asset Management segment in the coming months. Such strategic initiatives are expected to aid revenues for the bank in the future.
In the past three months, DB has gained 7.9% compared with the industry’s 1.1% growth.
