About Amit
I migrated to Australia not long after Finlease was founded in 1989. I arrived here to further my Engineering degree and diversify in to the world of business with an MBA in Marketing & Finance at QUT, Brisbane. Thereafter I spent 10 years at Westpac and National Australia Bank in their Commercial finance division specialising in Asset Finance and understanding the wide spectrum of commercial banking and finance before joining Finlease.
At Finlease I was given the free reign to develop and diversify our business interest in any industry of my liking and bring that industry closer to the commercial finance world. I chose Aviation. Not just because of a childhood aspiration to become a pilot but more so to understand the complexities of this dynamic industry and thereby those of our client’s business, to use my commercial finance expertise to better present them in the commercial finance world and effectively address their financial requirements.
Over the past 2 decades, I have well established Finlease into this industry as a partner to numerous aviation businesses and helped finance an extensive array of aviation assets via structured commercial finance and banking solutions.
It has been a learning curve at every step and whilst we have learnt and adapted, we have also educated our financiers to better understand the dynamics of aviation industry. What I have learnt and achieved in working within the aviation industry from a finance perspective, I am able to apply the same to just about any industry.

Amit C and his staff excel in service delivery.
We have had a need for Amit’s assistance a few times during the last 6 years to purchase aircraft. Without the services that he and his team provide it could have been a long and protracted application process. What made it easier was his clear, concise questions, his product knowledge and his ‘no fuss’ approach to getting the right information from us that will give us the best chance of a positive outcome. Our last application was no different, we provided what was requested and shortly thereafter, we were approved.
Our shiny new 2022 Cirrus SR22 G6, is in the air right now paying its way!

Amit has worked closely with our business as our financial broker over the last 10 years. Starting with us when Meridian consisted of 1 leased aircraft and myself, Geoff Keir as the only pilot, to today having 5 aircraft, 23 staff, a range of heavy / light motor fleet and holding long term contracts with major electricity providers for the states of Queensland and South Australia.
During this time Amit has provided us with extensive financial assistance and guidance, preparing all of our finance applications and proposals for aircraft, role equipment and motor vehicle fleet. Amit has built relationships with our banking managers and liaised closely with them to acquire the necessary funding for the above.
His knowledge and attention to detail have aided in keeping our company on track during our significant company growth and also through the COVID pandemic.
Amit is extremely dedicated, dependable, hard working, flexible and has extensive knowledge across all facets of the financial industry. We are fortunate to have Amit work with us. Meridian Helicopters would not be where we are today without his services.
