Avolon is an aircraft leasing company headquartered in Dublin, Ireland.[1] It was established in May 2010 by Dómhnal Slattery[2] and a team from RBS Aviation Capital, including John Higgins, Tom Ashe, Andy Cronin, Simon Hanson, and Ed Riley.[3][4] In December 2014, Avolon went public on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) with the ticker symbol AVOL, marking the largest listing of an Irish-founded company on the NYSE.[5] In September 2015, Avolon received a cash offer from Bohai Leasing Co., an affiliated Chinese leasing and financial services company, to acquire 100% of Avolon's common shares.[6] The acquisition by Bohai Leasing was completed in January 2016, leading to Avolon's delisting from the NYSE. In November 2018, ORIX Corporation, a Japanese financial institution, acquired a 30% stake in Avolon from its shareholder, Bohai Capital,[7] which is part of the HNA Group.
In June 2021, Avolon made headlines by placing the world's largest order for eVTOL aircraft, specifically ordering 500 VX4s from Vertical Aerospace.[8]
In October 2022, Dómhnal Slattery, the founding CEO of Avolon, retired, and Andy Cronin, the founding CFO, succeeded him in the position.[9]
