Riyadh, Saudi Arabia: Swicorp has announced that it has purchased a strategic stake in Jordan Aviation (JATE), an aviation-leasing company in the Middle East, for an undisclosed sum.
The purchase was made through Intaj Capital, Swicorp's $250 million private equity vehicle.
JATE, an aircraft wet leasing company in the Middle East, is the first privately owned airline awarded a Jordanian Air Operating Certificate and is one of the youngest airlines to have completed the IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) in 2006.
