RIYADH, March 28, 2024: AviLease, the rising global aircraft lessor wholly owned by PIF, Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund, announced today the successful closing of a USD 700 million unsecured revolving credit facility.

The dual-currency facility, in USD and SAR (Saudi Riyal), has been secured with four Saudi banks: Alrajhi Bank, Banque Saudi Fransi (BSF), Riyad Bank and Saudi Awwal Bank (SAB).

Commenting on the announcement, Edward O’Byrne, CEO of AviLease, said: “We are pleased to announce the signing of a USD 700 million dual-currency revolving credit facility, which was more than 1.3 times oversubscribed.
