IBA provides proprietary and mission critical data products, advisory services and asset management solutions to airlines, lessors, MROs, financial institutions, governments and other aviation stakeholders worldwide.
Founded in 1988 and headquartered in the UK, the IBA Group has built a strong reputation for the quality and depth of its proprietary aviation data and the expertise of its team.
IBA’s integrated platform spans two core divisions, both of which are critical cogs in the global aviation financing machine: (1) aviation data and analytics, and (2) technical advisory services. Its data and intelligence products are used by clients across the full aviation ecosystem to support aircraft valuations, fleet planning, lease management, financing decisions and regulatory compliance. IBA’s blue-chip client base reflects the trusted, authoritative position it has established as a source of aviation intelligence globally.
The aviation data and intelligence sector benefits from powerful structural tailwinds, including the continued growth of global air travel, increasing fleet complexity, the proliferation of data-driven decision making across the industry and growing demand for independent technical expertise. In particular, aviation finance – IBA’s core target end-segment – is known for lack of data transparency and scarcity of public information, creating a challenge for aviation finance stakeholders who rely on data to make significant investment decisions.
IBA solves this challenge with its proprietary, mission-critical data, much of which is derived from its industry-leading technical services. These independent aircraft appraisal and consultancy services have been building authority, reputation and data for nearly 40 years giving IBA an important and valued position in the industry.
IBA has experienced strong growth in partnership with its previous investor – TPA Capital. Under TPA ownership the business launched the very successful Digital Solutions division – IBA Insight – allowing the company to monetize its proprietary and highly valuable dataset collected over decades of advisory work in the aviation industry. The platform has seen rapid adoption by industry stakeholders since launch, transforming IBA into a digital data-led business. As of 2025, half of IBA’s revenue was recurring annual digital platform subscriptions – with significant potential for further growth.
