History
Boeing Capital was incorporated in 1968 as McDonnell Douglas Finance,[citation needed] but this name was changed to Boeing Capital in 1997, when Boeing merged with the McDonnell Douglas Corporation.[4][5]
The subsidiary is known as a worldwide provider of financial services, but primarily supports its parent corporation.[6]
In September 2018, Boeing, Boeing Capital and insurance firm Marsh & McLennan were sued for having stolen Xavian Insurance's actuarial analysis to create the Aircraft Finance Insurance Consortium (better known as AFIC) to replace financing from the US-Exim Bank, which at that time could not take new business because Congress had refused to recharter it.[7]
