About

ICBC International Leasing Company’s Dublin-based legal team is highly praised by nominators as a ‘great team which excels in aircraft leasing, portfolio sales and other company activities’. The leasing arm of Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, itself the largest bank in the world in terms of total assets, ICBC International Leasing Company carries significant financial clout into its operations, and is now one of the foremost aircraft leasing companies in the world with over 650 aircraft. The legal team is undoubtedly a major driver in this success. Damien Flaherty, senior legal counsel, came in for particular praise from a number of nominating sources as ‘smart and capable, blending legal advice with a commercial perspective on closing transactions effectively’. He and the rest of the ICBC International Leasing team were also praised by nominators for their handling of a complex cross-border aircraft repossessions in recent months.
