‘Derisk’ Demystified

24 Mar 2025

There is no such thing as a transaction without risk, however, it is possible to reduce risk likelihood with proper management and planning.

In Q3 2023, we published an article entitled 6 tips to reduce risk, where we identified six core areas that manage and mitigate risk exposure in business aircraft transactions.

The phrase ‘derisk’ has been circulating for a while.  When we ‘derisk’ at Martyn Fiddler, what do we mean?

There are a number of ways that we can help derisk a transaction. Here are just a few examples:

  • Following the highest standards of governance across everything we do. Once this is in place, it will benefit all parties as we can move quickly and traverse across all our specialist teams.
  • Using a cash flow efficient way to import a business aircraft into the EU. Having proficient experience of our Article 23 license means that we can efficiently support owners of business aircraft who need to import into the EU.
  • Mitigating risks for owners of business aircraft requiring work, repairs, upgrades and maintenance using our customs guarantee.
  • Safeguarding the MRO’s and UBO’s of business aircraft using our experienced inward processing service, a well-known customs compliance control.
  • Martyn Fiddler’s dedicated and highly skilled client services team use everything within their power, including the 6 tips to reduce risk foundation blocks, to ensure that every clients bespoke needs are catered to. Time is critical for this area. Creating time and also sticking to deadlines could mean saving millions in costs.

Our team of specialists are constantly building long term relationships with customers, global aviation associations and more.  In addition, they are proactively looking for solutions that will derisk the transaction process for those wishing to buy, sell or own a business aircraft.
