09:05 | Stakeholders Panel: Transactions and the Impact of the Evolving Legal and Economic Framework
Venue: TAJ Mahal Hotel, New Delhi, IndiaKey Aspects:
How will transactions evolve in the near future? Will it continue to be a lessor-driven market?
Are we seeing a trend towards more acquisitions rather than leasing, especially in the APAC region? Considerations include rates, dollar hedging, the GIFT City aspect, and potential opportunities.
GIFT aspect: Is it a strategic advantage or not?
Given the COVID-19 pandemic, repossessions favoured entities with aircraft on their order books. Should airlines in this region evaluate this?
The Go Air experience: The CTC shift and positive developments in infrastructure, including multimodal transport. Is it aligning with the economic force India is becoming or will be in the coming decade?
Electric Aircraft and eVTOLs: Do we see any immediate impact on this region?
