DUBAI, 24th March, 2026 (WAM) — Dubai Aerospace Enterprise (DAE) Ltd on Tuesday announced that it has signed agreements to enter into new long-term, unsecured revolving credit facilities worth US$2.8 billion.
The new facilities replace an existing $1.4 billion facility, and the maturity date of the new facilities is March 2031. The addition of the new facilities increases DAE’s revolving credit facility capacity to approximately $4 billion.
