• Boeing Gets Into Vendor Finance Boeing reportedly tried its hand at vendor finance last year. According to the FT, Boeing pumped more than $130 million into an offshore unit of British charter airline Monarch, enabling buyout specialists Greybull to go ahead with their acquisition of the company. Boeing wanted to ensure that Monarch honored a (heavily discounted) deal to take 30 of its new 737 MAX aircraft. Monarch was placed in administration last week having failed to turn itself around. Curiously, Monarch had exercised an option for a further 15 Boeing jets at the list price of $1.7 billion this summer, despite apparently being on the verge of collapse. The news will doubtless provoke wry smiles at Bombardier after all the hoo-hah over unethical dumping of its planes in the U.S. market. FT, metered access
