Canyon is Managing Agent for Falko Regional Aircraft Limited Regional 2021-1 ABS

April, 2021: Canyon Financial Services Limited, a Vistra Group company (“Canyon”) is pleased to announce that we have been appointed as the Managing Agent for Falko Regional Aircraft Limited (Falko) Regional 2021-1 Asset Backed Securitisation (“ABS”) of $255 million asset backed debt to finance a portfolio of aircraft.

This inaugural ABS portfolio for Falko consists of 39 regional jet and turboprop aircraft currently on lease to up to 12 lessees located in 12 countries.

However, Falko’s proven track record in the resilient regional aircraft sector has attracted investors. Falko’s decision to appoint Canyon to the role of Managing Agent on its inaugural ABS is testament to our record of service delivery and competency.”
