Timeline
Banayoti attracted media attention in Malta in 2016 when he made a bid for a 49.9% stake in Air Malta through his UK company Banayoti Holdings Limited. The company had been registered earlier in 2016 with a share capital of EUR 1.85 billion which was never paid up, according to the company accounts. Banayoti is reported to have met only once with the Maltese government, after which his offer was rejected with a government spokesperson claiming that a standard due diligence search on Banayoti and his companies "clearly showed, even at a preliminary stage, that his companies would not match government plans to identify a strategic partner which can assure a positive turnaround for Air Malta”
In January 2016, Banayoti married Princess Aisha Bint Al Hussein. When he converted to Islam, he took the Muslim name Ashraf Banayoti, but goes by his legal name, Edward Banayoti. The couple divorced in Jordan in July 2016.
In 2015, Banayoti changed his name from Ernest Anderson to Edward Banayoti and founded the arms brokerage company Defence Unlimited in Malta. The company is registered as an organisation on the EU list of lobbies as of 2017 and is listed as a "broker of military assets" able to deliver various military hardware, such as ships, hand-held weapons, radar systems and armored vehicles, as well as specialized defence related training.
Edward Sawiris Banayoti, formerly known as Ernest (Ernie) Anderson and also known as Ashraf Banayoti, is a businessman of Egyptian origin based in Canada. He was the subject of a financial investigation for suspicion of fake mortgage deals through his unlicensed Canadian investment company Golden Gate Funds LP, and entered into a settlement with the Ontario Securities Commission in 2009, agreeing to pay $4.7-million in financial penalties.
More than 150 investors collectively invested over $8-million into this fund managed by Banayoti (known as Ernest Anderson at the time), before the company went bankrupt. A case was heard before an OSC tribunal and a settlement was agreed in 2009 in which Banayoti acknowledged using investor funds not to invest in mortgages, as he told investors, but to cover operating costs and make payments to previous investors. As part of the settlement, the OSC demanded $4.7-million in monetary penalties. As of January 2012, the full amount of the penalties remained unpaid.
The press coverage from this failed bid brought Banyoti to the attention of Maltese investigative journalist and anti-corruption activist Daphne Caruana Galizia, who investigated his prior business dealings in Canada under his former name Ernie or Ernest Anderson. According to the article, in 2005 the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) opened an investigation into Banayoti's company Golden Gate Funds, an unlicensed investment firm marketing its products to the public.
