Boeing predicts that the world’s airlines and lessors will continue to benefit from increased competition among lenders and historically low interest rates as manufacturers deliver $124 billion in new airplanes next year. In a new aircraft finance market outlook issued on Tuesday, Boeing added that decades of predictable, attractive returns have led to “unprecedented” diversity, efficiency and volume of financing for commercial airplanes. According to Boeing, next year’s financing will come mainly from capital markets, cash and commercial bank debt, while export credit agency exposure continues to wane.
