About Fides Holdings SA

Fides Holdings SA is the Luxembourg holding company of the Fides group, a privately owned boutique multi-family office in trust, real estate and family advisory services with offices in Luxembourg, Geneva, London and Mauritius.[1][2] It was entered in the Luxembourg trade and companies register on 16 April 2010 under number B152423, and Ivan P. Kapelus is president of its board.[3] It holds the shares of the Geneva trust company FIDES Trustees SA,[2][4] which the Austrian Firmenbuch has carried since 31 May 2025 as a shareholder of Red Bull GmbH, holding the 2 % that Chalerm Yoovidhya transferred on 20 May 2025 and that Bloomberg valued at about USD 1.1 billion.[5][6]

Fides was founded in 2010 by Ivan Kapelus, Ilan Kapelus and Fabrice Burgniard, who had worked together for more than fifteen years before that.[7] Ivan Kapelus, a founding partner and later shareholder and director of the Trident Trust group from 1981 to 1991 and afterwards managing director of Stenham Gestinor Plc, is chairman of the Fides Group.[8] Ilan Kapelus is the group's chief executive and Fabrice Burgniard a founding director of FIDES Trustees SA.[2] The company's capital is denominated in Swiss francs and the Luxembourg register publications record a series of increases, from CHF 431,771 in February 2015 to CHF 851,575 in September 2019.[3] In July 2017 it announced that it had bought the Geneva trust company Ariannol Trustees (Suisse) SA, founded in 2012 by Martin Bowen, for integration into FIDES Trustees SA, describing Fides then as an independent, privately owned boutique multi-family office with offices in Geneva and London.[2] When Ariannol was merged into FIDES Trustees SA on 4 September 2019 the Swiss commercial register recorded that one shareholder held the whole share capital of both companies.[4] Since 6 April 2016 the company has been the registered person with significant control of the group's London company, Fides Consultants Ltd, with 75 % or more of its shares and voting rights and the right to appoint and remove its directors.[9] An older and separate Luxembourg company registered in October 1992 under RCS B41469, Fides (Luxembourg) S.à r.l., carries a similar name.[10]
