The Cayman Islands remains a leading jurisdiction for the aviation industry thanks to the strength of its legal framework

Partners Sarah Humpleby and Peter Kendall alongside associates Alexandra Franklin and Sam Hall have contributed to the Cayman Islands chapter of Chambers Global Practice Guide 2025 on Aviation Finance & Leasing.

Cayman keeps pace with global demand

Even as global markets face uncertainty, the aviation industry remains active. Our chapter explores how the Cayman legal system and structures support aviation funding and leasing across the capital stack, the factors to consider when registering (or deregistering) an aircraft with the Civil Aviation Authority of the Cayman Islands and goes into detail on the options available in an insolvency scenario. With a tax neutral framework and familiar and sophisticated legal system, Cayman offers a reliable base for financing and leasing transactions throughout the aviation industry and provides a stable state of registration for private, commercial and transitioning aircraft.

Our team’s full commentary on Cayman's legal environment is now available on the Chambers and Partners website.
