Registered Address and Corporate Service Provider
La Motte Chambers, La Motte Street, St Helier, Jersey JE1 1BJ is historically the office of Abacus Financial Services Group Limited (later Abacus (Channel Islands) Ltd), a Jersey trust and corporate services provider. Abacus Financial Services Group was acquired by Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) in 2005 for an undisclosed sum, adding approximately USD 41 billion in assets under administration to RBC’s Global Private Banking business. Following the acquisition, Abacus’s Jersey operations were absorbed into RBC’s trust company business. In 2018, a formal merger was gazetted in Jersey combining RBC cees Trustees Limited, ISP Trustee Company Limited, and Abacus (GSK) Trustees Limited into a single entity.
La Motte Chambers continues to be associated with RBC’s Jersey operations. RBC Trust Company (Jersey) Limited and RBC Corporate Services (Jersey) Limited provide registered office addresses and company administration services from this location.
This strongly suggests Solarstone Limited is or was administered by RBC Trust Company (Jersey) or a successor entity to Abacus.
