Lord Rothschild at Waddesdon for Phoenix TV China

Rothschild Family Fortune +500 Trillion There is no evidence that they are worth tens or hundreds of billions, let alone trillions. The few wealthiest family members are still billionaires. Others are worth hundreds of millions or less. Their banking operations today are relatively small. Many of their assets have been nationalized. The Austrian branch lost everything to the Nazis; the British branch lost a lot of its original wealth to heavy taxation like most British aristocrats, and the French bank was nationalized by Mitterand. They have not been more than a minor player in finance for about a hundred years. They don t control central banks or have any outsize power. However antisemitic legends about them from the height of their power in the 19th century when they made major loans to governments have not dissipated.
