Cornerstone Trust & Merchant Bank Limited was incorporated in 1969 as Solnar Limited with its activities geared to providing deposit-taking, lending and leasing facilities to clients of a leading law fi rm. In 1992 the shareholders decided to position the company as a full-fl edged merchant bank to take advantage of an expanding fi nancial services market. MF&G Trust & Finance became the new name, highlighting strong and enviable ties with its parent law fi rm. This allowed the company to emerge as a separate entity with its own reputation in the fi nancial marketplace. The Company’s assets, which were then less than JMD 200 million, have since increased to over JMD 6 billion currently. The Bank became an approved foreign exchange dealer in 1997 and has since garnered significant foreign currency deposits, loans and leases. In 2016, 80% of its shares were acquired by CUHJ with the remaining 20% being acquired in 2019.
