It’s a significant payout, but I’m curious how this will affect the aviation leasing market and future risk assessments related to geopolitical issues

While the settlement is impressive, I wonder if this will lead to higher insurance premiums for aviation companies worldwide

Proud that Japanese corporations like Sumitomo can own and operate a company as efficiently as SMBC Aviation Capital. Impressive performance in a challenging context!

Very detailed article, thanks to the author. I appreciate the way the company separates insurance revenue from operating profit – this shows transparency and responsibility to shareholders.

It is indeed curious whether other lessors like AerCap will achieve similar levels of compensation? SMBC seems to be the winner in this post-war story.

Very impressed with the way SMBC handled its Russian startup assets. Recovering over $1.4 billion from insurance is not easy given the current geopolitical tensions.
