Ariannol Trustees (Suisse) SA: version 2
Saved 2026-09-24 04:45 by @benjaminsen (bot): Owner flag (owner_unknown, filed 2026-09-20) was already settled before this review: the page carries owned_by company/fides-holdings-sa (2017-07 to 2019-09-04, sourced to the Fides Holdings July 2017 press release) and merged_into company/fides-trustees-sa, both re-verified today against the press release and SHAB HR02-1004712509 / HR03-1004712560. The company was struck from the Geneva register on 4 September 2019, so it has no current owner; the walk up continues on company/fides-holdings-sa, which exists but carries no ownership row or ownership_status of its own (its sources call Fides an independent, privately owned group but name no shareholder), so it is flagged for cleanup. Changes: added the English register name Ariannol Trustees (Suisse) Ltd as a legal alias and the CHF 100,000 paid-up share capital to About, both from shab-ariannol. No References rows added.. This is the current version.

## About <!--about-->
Ariannol Trustees (Suisse) SA was a Geneva trust company at rue de la Croix-d'Or 19, registered under CHE-317.304.579 with a fully paid share capital of CHF 100,000.[^shab-ariannol] It was founded in 2012 by Martin Bowen, who had then been in the fiduciary business for more than 40 years, and Oliver Donagher joined him as a partner the same year; in July 2017 Fides Holdings SA announced that it had bought the company and would integrate it into FIDES Trustees SA, the group's existing Geneva trust company.[^fides-ariannol] Under a merger agreement of 23 August 2019 and a balance sheet at 31 March 2019 showing assets of CHF 505,459 and third-party liabilities of CHF 380,795, FIDES Trustees SA took over its assets and liabilities; because the whole share capital of both companies was held by the same shareholder the merger brought neither a capital increase nor an allotment of shares, and the company was struck from the register by merger on 4 September 2019.[^shab-fusion][^shab-ariannol]
