ABOUT
Aviation industry
The world is dependent on the aviation industry, not only for tourism but for the transportation of goods. According to the Air Transport Action Group, “If aviation were a country it would rank 21st in the world in terms of gross domestic product (GDP), generating $664 Billion of GDP per year, considerably larger than some members of the G20.” What’s more, it is forecasted that aviation will contribute $1 trillion to world GDP by 2026. In an industry of this nature and magnitude, there can very often be a need to quantify damages due to instances of fraud, business interruption, the occurrence of natural or man-made disasters, not to mention shareholder and contractual disputes.
