"Co Finance is a new entrant to the aviation finance space and unique at that,” comments Perry Bridges, Chief Operating Officer at Co Finance. “Co-ownership of aircraft has grown exponentially in the last several years. Our mission is to provide a finance solution for those co-owners who prefer to utilize their capital in other ways. While Co Finance is a new entity, I've financed airplanes for a good portion of my career. I have great respect for the NAFA membership group and hope to be able to continue great collaboration to grow our business in a segment—co-ownership aircraft finance—that is not well supported.”
