AerDragon lands second $200M unsecured loan in two years

What's the deal? China-based aircraft lessor AerDragon Aviation Leasing has secured a $200 million five-year unsecured syndicated loan facility. It is the company's second unsecured loan since 2025.

Why now? The facility follows AerDragon's inaugural $200 million three-year unsecured syndicated loan completed in 2025, marking a rapid return to the debt market.

What's the endgame? As an aircraft lessor, AerDragon uses such financing to fund fleet activity, though full details of the proceeds' use were not disclosed.

The signal: At $200 million, the raise sits in the top tier of debt facilities by size, underscoring lender appetite for repeat unsecured lending to established Asian lessors.
