BNDES backs Porter’s next 19 Embraer E195-E2 deliveries

Porter Aviation Holdings has locked in BNDES financing for up to 19 Embraer E195-E2s, covering deliveries through December 2030. The commitment extends an existing funding channel for Porter’s 75-jet E2 programme, of which 54 aircraft are already delivered, and gives the carrier a structured source of export-backed capital for most of the remaining lift. The package is insured through Brazil’s Export Credit Guarantee Fund, with three of Porter’s current E2s already financed through BNDES. For Embraer, the deal reinforces the E2’s penetration in North America while preserving long-dated visibility on a major fleet build.
