Partnerships
Aircraft OEMs and Lessors
Partnerships with aircraft OEMs and global lessors secure delivery slots and favorable pricing, leveraging an industry backlog of roughly 7,500 aircraft at Airbus (end‑2023) to prioritize placements. Co‑marketing and back‑to‑back lease structures accelerate fleet deployments and mitigate remarketing risk. OEM technical support enhances maintenance programs and residual values, while joint fleet transition programs cut downtime and transition costs materially for Bohai Leasing.
Container Makers and Logistics Ecosystems
Bohai Leasing's ties with container manufacturers, depot operators, and shipping alliances enable scalable leasing by securing volume production slots and depot access. Standardized long-term contracts lower unit costs and shorten payback cycles. Access to global depot networks improves turnaround and utilization, supporting the sector that handles over 80% of world seaborne trade. Data-sharing with partners enhances real-time tracking and predictive maintenance.
Banks, Funds, and Capital Markets
Relationships with state-owned banks and institutional investors give Bohai Leasing diversified funding lines, supporting a loan portfolio exceeding RMB 100 billion; securitizations and ABS platforms (China ABS issuance ~RMB 1.6 trillion in 2023) help optimize cost of capital; club deals and co-investments spread concentration risk on large-ticket assets; interest-rate and FX counterparties enable active hedging programs.
MROs, Insurers, and Technical Service Providers
MROs, insurers and technical service providers preserve Bohai Leasing's asset value through routine maintenance, repair and overhaul, while power-by-the-hour and maintenance reserve structures align operator and lessor incentives to control lifecycle costs. Insurance partners mitigate operational and geopolitical exposures as global air traffic recovered to about 95% of 2019 levels in 2024 (IATA). Technical auditors enable objective mid-lease inspections and smoother redeliveries.
- Asset preservation via MROs
- Incentive alignment: power-by-the-hour, reserves
- Risk transfer: insurers for ops and geopolitical events
- Independent technical audits for mid-lease checks
Regulators, Ports, and Infrastructure Stakeholders
Engagement with aviation and maritime regulators ensures compliance with safety and environmental standards; over 80% of global trade by volume moves by sea, making port access critical. Access agreements with ports and airports enable rapid asset positioning for Bohai Leasing; roughly half of commercial aircraft are leased globally. Government bodies and ECAs supply export credit and guarantees while local partners streamline cross-border registrations and liens.
- Regulatory compliance
- Port/airport access
- ECAs/government guarantees
- Local registration & liens
OEM, lessor and finance alliances secure aircraft deliveries, leasing and logistics
Partnerships with OEMs/global lessors secure delivery slots amid ~7,500 Airbus backlog (end‑2023) and ~50% global aircraft lease share; co‑leasing cuts remarketing risk. Container/depot alliances leverage >80% seaborne trade; SOE bank ties support loan book >RMB100bn (2024) and ABS market ~RMB1.6tn (2023). MROs/insurers preserve asset value as air traffic ~95% of 2019 (2024).

Activities
Asset Sourcing and Procurement
Bohai Leasing identifies, evaluates and acquires aircraft, containers and equipment targeting attractive entry yields, leveraging market intelligence and OEM pipelines. The team negotiates purchase agreements and delivery schedules while performing rigorous technical and legal due diligence to control lifecycle and residual risk. Bohai structures purchase-leasebacks to unlock client liquidity, operating in an industry where leased assets represent roughly 50% of the global passenger jet fleet in 2024.
Credit Underwriting and Structuring
At Bohai Leasing, credit underwriting in 2024 assesses lessee credit, cash flows and sector cyclicality to quantify repayment capacity and tail risks. Lease structuring balances operating and finance lease terms to optimize yield versus risk while embedding covenants, collateral and maintenance reserves. Pricing relies on scenario and residual analyses to stress cashflows and terminal values.
Portfolio and Lease Management
Monitor utilization, payments and covenant compliance across Bohai Leasing’s portfolio—2024 assets under management reached RMB 128.6 billion with a reported non-performing lease ratio near 0.8%, guiding risk thresholds and cashflow monitoring. Manage maintenance events and redelivery conditions to protect residuals and recovery value. Optimize placement between regions and industries to improve yield and concentration limits. Proactively handle renewals, extensions and early terminations to preserve margins and utilization.
Asset Remarketing and Trading
Bohai Leasing sources secondary-market buyers and lessees globally, executing mid-life trades to recycle capital and reconfigure assets for new operators or roles, while capturing timing- and channel-driven gains through targeted remarketing.

Revenue Streams
Operating Lease Rentals
Operating lease rentals deliver predictable, recurring rental income over contracted lease terms for Bohai Leasing, structured as indexed or fixed payments depending on asset class and region. Revenue uplifts occur through contract extensions and renewals, while utilization-linked components (hourly or usage-based fees) add performance-related upside where applicable. These streams support stable cashflow and asset-backed financing capacity.
Finance Lease Interest and Principal
Finance lease interest and principal provide Bohai Leasing with effective interest income on net investment, forming the bulk of net interest margin in 2024.

Residual realization at term-end and contract-triggered early termination fees capture residual value and downside compensation, enhancing lifetime cash yields.
Origination, Arrangement, and Servicing Fees
Upfront structuring and documentation fees are charged at deal close to cover credit assessment and legal work, forming a steady one-time income stream; in 2024 Bohai Leasing increased focus on fee-based revenue. Ongoing servicing and administration charges generate recurring margins through portfolio management and monitoring. Amendment and extension fees and brokerage on partner-introduced deals provide opportunistic, transaction-driven income to boost fee diversification.
Asset Sales and Remarketing Gains
Bohai Leasing captures profits from trading aircraft, containers and equipment by timing disposals to market cycles and extracting part-out and teardown value; in 2024 asset sales and remarketing contributed materially to cash flow, supporting portfolio rebalancing that released capital for higher-yield leases and new purchases.
- Trading profits from aircraft, containers, equipment
- Timing disposals to market cycles
