Shareholders
2
Abbey Capital Limited’s Companies Registration Office filings show two disclosed shareholdings, both held by Cavendish Capital Limited, an Irish private company, together accounting for the entirety of Abbey Capital Limited’s issued share capital. This direct 100% ownership by Cavendish Capital Limited is corroborated by Abbey Capital Limited’s own Form ADV disclosure filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, which states that Cavendish Capital Limited owns 100% of Abbey Capital. Because both disclosed shareholders are corporate entities rather than natural persons, the CRO filing alone does not identify an individual beneficial owner.
Ultimate beneficial ownership
Cavendish Capital Limited, the direct parent, is itself privately held by its founders Tony Gannon and Tim Brosnan. According to Business Post reporting dated 20 March 2025 on Cavendish Capital Limited’s filed accounts, Tony Gannon holds 845,864 Class A ordinary shares and Tim Brosnan holds 720,566 Class B ordinary shares in Cavendish Capital Limited, equivalent to approximately 54% and 46% of Cavendish Capital Limited’s issued share capital respectively. Combined with Cavendish Capital Limited’s 100% direct shareholding in Abbey Capital Limited, this produces a calculated effective ownership in Abbey Capital Limited of approximately 54% for Tony Gannon and approximately 46% for Tim Brosnan as of the reported date. These are calculated indirect percentages rather than a filing made directly against Abbey Capital Limited, and Ireland’s Register of Beneficial Ownership entry for Abbey Capital Limited itself is not independently accessible to confirm them.
Data availability
Ireland’s Register of Beneficial Ownership (RBO) records beneficial ownership information but provides only limited public search access, so beneficial ownership for Abbey Capital Limited cannot be independently verified through that register. Shareholder information at the immediate level, Cavendish Capital Limited’s 100% holding, is publicly available via CRO annual returns; further verification relies on secondary reporting of Cavendish Capital Limited’s own filings.

Officers
15
Abbey Capital Limited’s Companies Registration Office record shows two active directors, David McCarthy (appointed 1 January 2011) and Conor Brosnan (appointed 12 July 2021), alongside three company secretaries whose appointments have since ended: The Secretarial Company Limited (resigned 24 May 2000), Anthony Terence Gannon (resigned 27 May 2003) and Peter Carney (resigned 16 May 2018). No individual is currently recorded as company secretary, and CRO filings do not disclose nationality for the active directors.
Data availability
Irish CRO officer filings publish appointment and resignation dates and correspondence addresses but do not disclose director nationality, so nationality for David McCarthy and Conor Brosnan is not publicly available and should not be inferred from their recorded addresses. Separately, Abbey Capital Limited has publicised senior executive appointments, including a Chief Operating Officer and a Chief Financial Officer, in company communications; these are management roles rather than statutory CRO-registered officer appointments, so they are not reflected in the CRO officer record above.

Group Structure
Abbey Capital Limited operates as part of a small, privately held corporate group. Its immediate parent, Cavendish Capital Limited, an Irish private company, holds all of Abbey Capital Limited’s issued share capital, a relationship confirmed both by CRO shareholder filings and by Abbey Capital Limited’s own Form ADV disclosure to the US Securities and Exchange Commission. Abbey Capital Limited in turn wholly owns Abbey Capital (US) LLC, a US subsidiary through which the firm conducts its US-facing investment advisory and commodity pool activities. No further verified direct or indirect subsidiaries were identified.
Verified corporate relationships
- Cavendish Capital Limited (Ireland) – Immediate parent – 100% of issued share capital – Active – confirmed via CRO shareholder filings and SEC Form ADV disclosure, 2025
- Abbey Capital (US) LLC (United States) – Direct subsidiary, wholly owned – 100% – Active – per company regulatory disclosures
Data availability
The immediate parent relationship is independently confirmed through both Irish CRO shareholder records and Abbey Capital Limited’s own US regulatory disclosure, so this level of the structure is considered verified. Cavendish Capital Limited’s own registration number and whether either company holds further subsidiaries beyond Abbey Capital (US) LLC were not identified in the sources reviewed, and no evidence of additional group entities was found.
