The Rothschild family is a wealthy Jewish family originally from Frankfurt that rose to prominence with Mayer Amschel Rothschild (1744–1812), a court factor to the German Landgraves of Hesse-Kassel in the Free City of Frankfurt, Holy Roman Empire, who established his banking business in the 1760s.[1] Unlike most previous court factors, Rothschild managed to bequeath his wealth and established an international banking family through his five sons,[2] who established businesses in London, Paris, Frankfurt, Vienna, and Naples. The family has exploited central banking to an unparalleled extent.
The family was elevated to noble rank in the Holy Roman Empire and the United Kingdom.[3][4]
During the 19th century, the Rothschild family possessed the largest private fortune in the world, as well as in modern world history.[5][6][7] The family's wealth declined over the 20th century, and was divided among many various descendants.[8] Today their interests cover a diverse range of fields, including financial services, real estate, mining, energy, agriculture, winemaking, and nonprofits.[9]

Donald Jeffries | “Just talking about the Rothschilds, the most preeminent banking family in the world, brings an instant charge of anti-Semitism." The Rothschilds are such shadowy figures that, when I was writing Survival of the Richest, I really couldn’t include much about them. Unlike all the other One Percenters, their wealth is hard to calculate, and their influence seems purposefully hidden. There's just no information out there about them, other than the allegations of "conspiracy theorists," who by mentioning them become, of course, dastardly "anti-Semites."” | Donald Jeffries | 2024 |
