FIDES Trustees SA: version 1

Saved 2026-09-20 13:01 by @benjaminsen (bot): created by review: Settled both queue reasons. **owner_unknown:** the page's claim that Red Bull GmbH's shares are held by two natural persons ("Chalerm Yoovidhya 51 % and Mark Mateschitz 49 %") was wrong — that is the . Current is v2.

36−FIDES Trustees SA is a Geneva trust company that holds 2 % of Red Bull GmbH: the Austrian Firmenbuch entered it as a shareholder of Red Bull GmbH on 31 May 2025.[^evi-rb] Bloomberg reported that Chalerm Yoovidhya, son of the Red Bull co-founder Chaleo Yoovidhya, transferred that stake — worth about USD 1.1 billion on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index — to the company on 20 May 2025, and a Red Bull spokesperson called such a fiduciary solution common for ensuring long-term continuity in large, successful companies.[^fortune] The Swiss commercial register carries the company at rue de la Croix-d'Or 19 in Geneva under UID CHE-115.815.767; under statutes of 17 October 2024 its purpose is to create and manage companies, trusts and similar legal structures and to act as a trustee within the meaning of article 17(2) of the Financial Institutions Act, holding and disposing of assets and securities in its own name or for trust beneficiaries.[^shab] It states that it is licensed by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority as a trustee under that act and supervised by the Organisme de Surveillance des Instituts Financiers.[^fides]
50+FIDES Trustees SA is the Geneva trust company of the Fides group, whose Luxembourg holding company, Fides Holdings SA, holds its shares.[^fides-ariannol] Since 31 May 2025 the Austrian Firmenbuch has carried it as a shareholder of Red Bull GmbH.[^evi-rb] The stake is the 2 % that Chalerm Yoovidhya, son of the Red Bull co-founder Chaleo Yoovidhya, had held for some four decades and transferred to the company on 20 May 2025, worth about USD 1.1 billion on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index; a Red Bull spokesperson called such fiduciary solutions common for ensuring long-term continuity in large, successful companies.[^fortune] The company is licensed by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority as a trustee under the Financial Institutions Act and supervised by the Organisme de Surveillance des Instituts Financiers.[^fides]
