Baron Benjamin de Rothschild, president of the family holding Edmond de Rothschild Holding SA which oversees the Franco-Swiss financial group Edmond de Rothschild Group, died on Friday at the age of 57, his family told AFP on Saturday.

“Ariane de Rothschild and her daughters are extremely sad to announce the death of their husband and father, Benjamin de Rothschild following a heart attack at the family home of Pregny (GE) in the afternoon of January 15, 2021, ”the family said in a statement.

The Franco-Swiss group, headquartered in Geneva, specializes in private banking and asset management and has no connection with the Franco-British investment bank, Rothschild and Co. The value of assets managed by the group amounts to 173 billion Swiss francs (approximately 160 billion euros).

...And this is one of those threads that is going to attract the small, malignant pocket of Freeper Anti-Semites the way that rotting meat attracts carrion flies.

...........a Swiss citizen with the last name of Rothschild dying at 57 from an alleged heart attack will no doubt be seen automatically as “suspicious”.

Interesting. You would think a man of his means would have been in better health at his age. He could have bought another person’s heart and a couple more for standby.

All that money, and still the flying fickle finger of fate touched him at a whole 57 years of age!

Something smells rotten in Switzerland!!

What’s so surprising, everyone dies. It’s funny that people are shocked when a rich or famous person dies but when John Q Public passes, oh well.

And proof that the hole in the ground looks the same for him and it does for the poorest of us.

Thank you for proving my point.

Maybe not “suspicious” but at least “unusual” in 2021.

I guess they moved to Switzerland when Mitterand was making noise about nationalizing everything, but don’t know for sure.

By the way “assets managed by the group” does not mean he was worth that much. Those are assets managed on behalf of others.

You’re welcome.
Anything for the perpetually offended.
In fact, any comment that isn’t 100% positive about Jewish people should be removed, and the person banned...
We all know international financiers love us and can do no wrong.

Nobody with any sense would assign blame for the deeds of that family onto any group. Similarly, it’s fine to talk honestly about their misdeeds with being labeled.

That whole “ist” game is very abused!
