AerCap Holdings N.V. is an American-Irish aviation leasing company headquartered in Dublin, Ireland, with offices around the world.[2] AerCap is listed on the NYSE with the ticker 'AER'. It became the largest aviation leasing company in the world following the acquisition of ILFC in 2014,[3] and GECAS from GE in 2021,[4] for over $30 billion.[5]

Its assets include 1,486 owned narrow-body aircraft and wide-body aircraft[6] as of the end of Q3 2023, as well as cargo aircraft, aircraft engines, regional jets, and helicopters. Following the closing of the GECAS transaction General Electric owned 45.4% of the company,[1] but, after a series of secondary market sales in March and September 2023, sold its final stake in November 2023.[7] The company is now fully owned by public shareholders, the largest of which was Wellington with 21 million shares at the end of September 2023.[8]
