ILFC - Middle Eastern Sale???

I personally believe that Middle Eastern investor will have access to the fianance much more than any other countries, the UAE already committed to expanding their prospective aviation and transport related investments and to procure ILFC would also bring prestige to their goal of becomming major global players in the aviation sector.

With each investment being scrutinised by the money markets, loans to buy companies even at firesale values will deter most of the established companies and as previously stated, GE capital would surely be stopped on anti trust grounds from making an investment.

My only doubt is the American opinion and sentiment against a sale to Middle Eastern backers like has previously been witnessed in the P & O purchase of an institution like ILFC.

Time shall tell but intresting times ahead for both commercial and personal finances I believe.
