EU competition regulators have today approved without conditions Irish aircraft leasing company AerCap’s $30 billion bid for General Electric’s aircraft leasing business, according to a filing on the European Commission website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The deal between the world’s two largest aircraft leasing companies would create a new financing giant and the largest buyer of jetliners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The deal will reshape a global air finance industry that has in recent years attracted a flood of capital from investors seeking higher returns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Analysts said it could also set off more consolidation in the sector, hit by the coronavirus crisis alongside other industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The deal to buy GECAS, or GE Capital Aviation Services, includes about $24 billion in cash and $1 billion paid in AerCap notes or cash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It includes 111 million new shares and will give GE a stake of 46% in the AerCap-controlled company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GE said today it expects the deal to complete by the end of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
