HistoryHoldun has a proud heritage that can be traced back to Sir Herbert Holt, arguably one of the most successful businessmen in Canadian history. During the height of his power, the Irish industrialist controlled some 300 companies on three continents worth an estimated $3 billion at the time. He increased the Royal Bank of Canada's assets fifteen-fold during his 26-year reign as the President of the bank.
Thirteen-Fold Increase Between 1990 and 2011
The Holt/Dunn family trust was created to continue Sir Herbert Holt's legacy. Between 1990 and 2011, the value of this portfolio increased thirteen-fold under the management of Sir Herbert's great-grandson and Holdun's Co-Founder, Stuart Dunn, an impressive gain even by Sir Herbert's measure. The current portfolio managers are determined to maintain this formidable track record by closely following the investment philosophy and strategy developed by Mr. Dunn.
