RBC Wealth Management, part of Royal Bank of Canada, has made two appointments for its offshore investment solutions and advisory teams in Jersey.

Eva Wrona has joined as director in investment solutions and Howard Phillips will strengthen the advisory team on the island in the English Channel.

Wrona has relocated from RBC in Toronto, Canada, where she most recently worked in a global role as head of investment management services. In her new position, she has overall responsibility for investment and client management within the recently launched Portfolio Construction and Manager Research service. She will report to David McFadzean, head of investment solutions.

Phillips, who joins from Collins Stewart’s Jersey office, will help his new employer with the delivery of a full advisory service offering from the island. He will report to Daniel Vaysleyb, head of offshore advisory.

Earlier this month, RBC saw the departure of Joe Donohoe, private client director at the firm’s trust operation in Jersey. Donohoe joined RBC as part of the acquisition of Abacus Financial Services in 2005.

RBC Wealth Management has had a presence in Jersey for 50 years this year and employs 900 people in the jurisdiction.
