新的直升机所有权包括五架长期租用的飞机-三架Leonardo AW139和两架Sikorsky S-92飞机，总价值超过1亿美元，由LCI与Flexam有形资产收益基金（Flexam投资集团的一部分）合作推出的，后者也为资本化做出了贡献。LCI将作为直升机服务商。
LCI首席财务官Jaspal Jandu说：“ 能够领导直升机租赁行业推出这种新型的所有权直升机， LCI感到很高兴。我们也很荣幸能与Flexam合作，Flexam的资产融资专业知识在执行此交易中发挥了重要作用。” “对于首款共同投资直升机，外界对此都有浓厚的兴趣。LCI拥有经验丰富的平台，管理团队和往绩记录，我们希望将来能在类似的框架上有所发展。”
Flexam Invest的合伙人Fabrice Fraikin和Florian de Sigy表示：“直升机租赁市场是一个充满活力的市场，提供许多投资机会。LCI是该领域的领头羊，拥有丰富的经验和广博的知识。金融界对其以往的业绩表示充分肯定，LCI是Flexam的理想合作伙伴。”
LCI于2012年首次进入直升机租赁市场，获得了价值4亿美元的莱昂纳多AW139，AW169和AW189飞机机队的订单。它为在全球四大洲多个领域运营的接近100架飞机的机队提供服务，服务包括海上风电，紧急医疗服务，搜索和救援，海上飞行员转移以及海上油气。
自2011年以来，Flexam Invest已根据机车车辆，物流，海事和航空领域的有形资产构建了投资解决方案，旨在提供收益投资。

LCI Launches First Helicopter Co-Investment Vehicle
Helicopter lessor LCI launched its first ever helicopter co-investment vehicle.
The new helicopter ownership vehicle contains five aircraft all on long-term lease – three Leonardo AW139 and two Sikorsky S-92 units – and is valued at over $100 million. It has been launched in partnership with Flexam Tangible Asset Income Fund (part of Flexam Invest Group), who have also contributed to the capitalization. LCI will also act as servicer for the vehicle.
Jaspal Jandu, chief financial officer of LCI, said, “LCI is delighted to lead the helicopter leasing sector in launching this new form of ownership vehicle. It enables investors to participate at a specific transaction level and we are delighted to be partnering with Flexam whose professionalism in asset financing has been instrumental in executing this transaction.”“There has been strong interest in our first co-investment vehicle and, as a helicopter lessor with a proven platform, management team and track record, we look forward to building upon similar frameworks in the future.”
Fabrice Fraikin and Florian de Sigy, both partners at Flexam Invest, said, “The helicopter leasing marketplace is a dynamic one offering many investment opportunities. LCI is a leading lessor in this space possessing unrivalled experience and breadth of knowledge. Its track record as an aviation lessor is greatly respected by the financial community, making them an ideal partner for Flexam.”
LCI first entered the helicopter leasing marketplace in 2012 with a $400 million order for a fleet of Leonardo AW139, AW169 and AW189 aircraft. It services a fleet approaching 100 aircraft in operation across four continents in multiple sectors including offshore wind, emergency medical services, search and rescue, maritime pilot transfer and offshore oil and gas. LCI’s fleet now comprises approximately $1 billion of assets in service, on order and under control.
Since 2011, Flexam Invest has structured investment solutions based on tangible assets in the rolling stock, logistics, maritime and aviation spaces, aiming at providing yield investments.
