“Unity, Integrity, Industry” - a modern bank with a long family history
For hundreds of years, the Rothschild name has been synonymous with great financial power. The dynasty began in the 18th century with Mayer Rothschild, who set up a finance house in Frankfurt. His 5 sons went into business in each of Europe’s major financial capital cities. The family’s coat of arms contains five arrows clenched in a fist, symbolising this first generation of the Rothschild dynasty.
Over the years the Rothschilds grew wealthier and wealthier as the first truly international banking house. While many financiers were ruined by localised uprisings and greedy monarchs, the Rothschilds’ main wealth lay in global financial instruments like stocks, bonds and debts. No mob could rob them, and no poverty-stricken government could impound their riches. As a contemporary American newspaper observed, “the Rothschilds govern a Christian world. Not a cabinet moves without their advice."
La Compagnie Financiere Edmond de Rothschild
Paris has long been a seat of a Rothschild dynasty, and in 1953 Baron Edmond Adolphe de Rothschild formed the “Compagnie Financiere” that still bears his name. 12 years later he bought out a Swiss private banking practice in Geneva, and opened the first Luxembourg office just 3 years later. Today’s Edmond de Rothschild private bank is dedicated to offering high-quality personal wealth management services, alongside asset management and other financial support.
