BlueFive Leasing Appoints Key Omani Executives: Implications for Business Growth and Investment Opportunities in Oman
MUSCAT: BlueFive Capital, one of the fastest-growing investment management firms globally, has announced the appointments of Aimen al Hosni as Chairman and Khalid Mohammed Zaman as Vice Chairman of BlueFive Leasing, their specialized platform for aircraft leasing and asset-backed lending.
Aimen al Hosni brings over 20 years of experience across the aviation, infrastructure, investment, and financial services sectors. He served as CEO of Oman Airports from 2015 to 2025, where he transformed the organization into a high-performing, customer-focused airport operator. His leadership included developing strategies that improved route development, increased non-aeronautical revenues, and attracted international partnerships. Additionally, Al Hosni has held the position of Chairman of Airports Council International, where he has influenced global policy, supported cross-border investment in airport infrastructure, and advocated for innovation and digitalization in the industry.
Khalid Zaman, an experienced Omani businessman, has a proven track record of driving growth in key sectors and enhancing organizational dynamics. As the managing director of Al Zaman Group, he leads a diversified conglomerate that manages various businesses and investments both in Oman and internationally.
Launched earlier this year, BlueFive Leasing is among the first dedicated aircraft leasing and asset management platforms in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region. Established through a landmark partnership between BlueFive Capital and two Omani entities—one a sovereign institution and the other the Al Zaman Group—it operates from BlueFive Capital’s offices in Muscat. Its inaugural funding initiative, BlueFive Wings Fund I, aims to secure over $1 billion for commercial aircraft assets.

The appointment of Aimen al Hosni and Khalid Zaman to lead BlueFive Leasing signifies a strategic move towards elevating Oman’s position in the aviation and asset management sectors. This creates opportunities for businesses in Oman to leverage increased international partnerships and investment in aviation infrastructure, while also posing risks associated with competition in the burgeoning GCC market. Smart investors and entrepreneurs should focus on collaborative ventures and innovative solutions that align with these developments to capitalize on the expected growth in the aviation landscape.
