UBS Business Jet Market Study

UBS Securities LLC recently published an update to their “UBS Business Jet Survey.” The study indicates that although there is not yet improvement in the business jet market, the pace of deterioration has slowed.

Based on a survey distributed to brokers/dealers, fractional providers, appraisers, management/charter operators and FBO and MRO service providers, there is a increase in customer interest while prices are flat since September.

Inventory levels are still high and most think that the availability of financing is the same as in September, although a small percentage of respondents thinks financing is now more available.

More than 60% of respondents are optimistic about business jet market conditions over the next 12 months.
