KENDRIS focuses on aviation and expands its business aviation division
The international advisory and fiduciary services firm KENDRIS is expanding its expertise in the aviation sector with Kai Günthardt. KENDRIS now also offers operational solutions for business aircraft – and all in-house. This is in response to growing client demand in this business area.
Kai Günthardt is KENDRIS' new aviation expert. The 56-year-old commenced work at the end of April. He strengthens the «Aviation & Yachts Solutions» team alongside Olga Tcacenco and Raphael Cica. With more than 20 years of industry experience, Kai Günthardt is a proven aviation expert who covers all areas from sales and acquisition advice to the operation of private and commercial aircraft on EASA basis to comprehensive aircraft finance advice. Prior joining KENDRIS, Kai Günthardt was Managing Partner at an independent multi-family office in Zurich, where he led the entire aviation department, as well as Managing Director of a globally active executive aviation consulting firm based in Switzerland. He also holds an Air Transport Pilot License (ATPL) and is qualified on various turboprop aircraft and business jets.
By expanding aviation services to include the operational area, KENDRIS now offers the opportunity to fully manage aircraft in-house. The modular system allows customers to receive tailored services throughout the entire lifecycle of their business jets according to their individual needs as aircraft owners, buyers, or sellers. Alternatively, they can now choose KENDRIS as sole point of contact for their jet. In this case, KENDRIS takes over all services, starting from aircraft purchase through operation on a private or commercial basis to precise cost control, potential commercial use, and finally sale.
