Helping Families to Create and Enrich their Legacy for Generations to Come

Meet Our CEO

Denis R. de St. Aubin

My great-grandfather’s simple business philosophy of taking care of employees and clients and being above board and honest motivates me daily. This philosophy and his principles have inspired our family for generations. At Old North State Trust our mission is to help other families pass on their legacy and values to future generations, just as my family’s values were handed down to me.

Let Old North State Trust help you create and enrich your legacy for your family and future generations.

Our Customers
Experiences

“We have enjoyed a great working relationship with Old North State Trust since 2012 in advising our Firm and the Firm’s Retirement Plan participants. ONST has provided excellent services. They go above and beyond to help us navigate through the many Plan options and strategies. In addition to their wealth of knowledge and experience, they are great communicators. The folks at ONST are able to take complex data and information and make it understandable and useful to the Plan Administrators and participants. We look forward to many more years working with ONST.”

“I have had one financial advisor during my entire 35-year medical career. I wanted to extend the bandwidth to using a Self-Directed Sep IRA. I was referred to Susan and her team at Old North State Trust. It takes many years to trust anyone with my investments and after a relatively short time I knew they were the best. Accessible, family oriented, and caring about our individual needs. Down the road I moved additional funding to their managed account portfolio, and this move to them pretty much says it all.”
