Hilshaw Group diversifies into the Aviation Industry. The move comes with the announcement of a Strategic Aircraft Leasing Joint Venture with the leading global aviation company, Aeolus. The venture will be focused on aircraft leasing, special flight operations and related services with an initially planned fleet of 20 commercial aircraft (combination of narrow body and wide body) to be available to the global leasing market.

Hilshaw Group is a Multi-Family Office & Investment Advisory. The Company primarily invests in low-supply, finite, time-specific opportunities. The Company had previously allocated $175 million towards UAE Real Estate, specifically towards facilitating the Remote Work Visa program. The Group is also involved in the financial facilitation of Sustainable Projects across Europe and Africa.

AEOLUS is an airline advisory, aircraft brokerage and trading organization with over 20 years of experience. AEOLUS serve and advise both UHNWI and Airlines in the UAE and around the world for their requirements.

The JV will have Aeolus render its expertise and two decades of experience in fleet management. Hilshaw Group’s mandate is to design and manage the finance and capital structure for acquiring the fleet.

This joint venture represents a significant milestone for both companies, combining their expertise, resources, and market reach to deliver unmatched solutions in the aviation industry. The collaboration aims to capitalise on the increasing demand for aircraft leasing services and the growing opportunities in the global aviation market.

Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, both companies will pool their expert portfolios to establish a diverse and comprehensive fleet of commercial aircraft, ranging from narrow-body to wide-body and regional jets. This synergistic partnership will enable the new entity to offer a wide range of options to airlines, catering to their specific operational requirements and ensuring the highest level of customer satisfaction.
