1 SECTORS & MARKETS Transport & Logistics
2 OVERVIEW Appleby s transport and logistics team specialises in advising on asset finance transactions for clients in the aviation, shipping, road, rail and logistics industries, as well as registration of aircraft and vessels. We are a recognised and highly-regarded team of lawyers based in key offshore jurisdictions, including Bermuda, the British Virgin Islands (BVI), Cayman Islands, Guernsey, Hong Kong, Isle of Man, Jersey, Mauritius, Seychelles and Shanghai. Leading independent legal research guide Chambers Global cites sources who acknowledge our teams for commitment and creativity in solving problems They have a very good knowledge of local law, but also understand how it integrates into US and European law, which is important for offshore investors. Aviation Our team regularly advises on aviation matters, including advice to lenders and borrowers on a broad range of financing and security documentation, the use and formation of SPVs and various security, priority, subordination and inter-creditor agreements, as well as the sale, acquisition and leasing of aircraft (in private and commercial use) and the financing of those transactions. [Appleby has] a very good knowledge of local law but also understands how it integrates into US and European law, which is important for offshore investors Chambers Global We are experienced practitioners who have spent many years providing commercial and regulatory advice in relation to both private and commercial aviation operations, including the sale and purchase of aircraft, assistance in advising as to suitable structuring, establishment and operation of such vehicles, registration of aircraft, provision of VAT solutions, EU importation, intra-group leases, off balance sheet structures and operating and finance lease structures. In particular, Bermuda, Cayman Islands, and the Isle of Man have long been the domiciles of choice for financing and registering private aircraft, and in the case of Bermuda, both private and commercial aircraft. With the establishment of the Channel Islands Aircraft Registry in Guernsey in 2013, Guernsey is also positioning itself as a domicile of choice for financing and registering private aircraft, and Appleby with its global experitise in the field is ideally placed to assist. We are one of the world s leading offshore aviation practices, offering clients the benefit of years of experience operating around the globe. Our clients include major commercial lending institutions, export credit agencies, owner lessors, airlines, insurers, brokers, governments and regulatory bodies. Shipping In the world of shipping, we have a broad client base ranging from high net worth individuals owning super yachts to large internationally-operating shipping enterprises. We frequently act for lenders, both commercial banks and export credit agencies, that have a significant portfolio of ship finance. Our clients are involved in a full range of shipping and shipping-related service industries, including a range of activities from inception (ordering new construction) through the life of the vessel (ship owning and operating enterprises of all descriptions). As such, we have a wide range of expertise on a diverse range of shippingrelated activities across our network of offshore jurisdictions. These jurisdictions, and in particular Bermuda, BVI, Cayman Islands, Guernsey, Isle of Man and Jersey, are popular domiciles for registering and financing a wide variety of commercial vessels as well as pleasure and commercially-operated super yachts. We regularly provide advice on the registration of ships in Bermuda, BVI, Cayman Islands, Guernsey and Isle of Man, the sale and acquisition of ships and the financing of those transactions, and the registration and financing of private mega-yachts and commercial vessels during construction. We also prepare, review and provide opinions on loan and credit facility, and security documentation. 2
