ORIX AVIATION SYSTEMS LIMITED

Orix Aviation Systems Limited is an Ireland-based global operating lessor that has facilitated more than US$50 billion of aircraft transactions since its founding in 1991. With a fleet of over 220 aircraft and a 30 per cent stake in Avolon - one of the world's top three lessors - Orix combines direct ownership with strategic partnership to deliver flexible financing solutions to airlines worldwide.

The company's business model rests on four pillars, the most prominent being its owned fleet and a suite of asset-management services. These include Japanese operating leases, managed aircraft programmes and bespoke remarketing and investment solutions, all designed to meet the needs of both international and domestic Japanese investors. Orix's expertise has been recognised by S&P, which reaffirmed its "Strong with a Stable Outlook" rating in September 2024, the highest tier available for aviation lease servicers.
