Message from the President of Atlantic Trust Company & The Royal Vault President and Founder

As President of Atlantic Trust Company and Founder & President of The Royal Vault, I am proud to unite two legacies: the strength of a 60-year-old Canadian financial institution, and the disruptive innovation of The Royal Vault’s quantum-proof communication technology.

Founded in 1965, Atlantic Trust Company has long been synonymous with excellence, trust, and security in Canada's financial sector. Today, I carry that tradition forward while also building The Royal Vault, the world’s only mathematically unbreakable communication system.

Over my career — including founding Delphes in 1998 and growing it into a billion-dollar company — I have consistently focused on creating exceptional value through strategic vision, disciplined execution, and technological innovation. With The Royal Vault, that mission becomes personal: giving institutions, governments, and individuals the ability to protect their most sensitive communications without compromise.

Through our exclusive technology, now available in the form of The Royal Vault Secure Phones, Canadians can access the same level of privacy and protection once reserved only for governments and strategic enterprises. This is not just innovation — it is peace of mind, built for the quantum era.

Warm regards,

Andre Lajoie
President, Atlantic Trust Company
President and Founder, The Royal Vault
