Evelyn de Rothschild, chairman of E.L. Rothschild Ltd., talks about China's economic development and outlook for the country's financial services industry. De Rothschild speaks from Beijing with Rishaad Salamat on Bloomberg Television's "On the Move Asia" – Bloomberg Interview
Dominant Social Theme: China, it's a great country! Sure it's got some housing problems, but they'll work out ...
Free-market Analysis: This is a remarkable seven-minute interview that gives the perspective of a very powerful man on numerous subjects – and one in particular, China. We thought it was worth presenting given that in today's issue of the Daily Bell we have two articles on China that are fairly negative. This provides a more positive perspective.
There is, of course, no getting away from the reputation of the Rothschilds as the family of great power behind the world's central banks, which would make the family worth tens or hundreds of trillions. Nobody knows, of course. Yet watching such videos is an exercise in dominant social theme analysis, from our point of view.
We believe there exists a power elite that uses various thematic global promotions to pursue a goal of global governance. What is interesting in this video and others we viewed on YouTube recently is the fidelity with which Evelyn Rothschild hews to many of these themes.
In this video, an interview conducted about six months ago by Bloomberg TV, Sir Evelyn ticks a number of them, and those interested in such elements will doubtless recognize them.
Of added interest is an announcement he makes during the interview. It turns out that he has founded a weather forecasting website that can provide local predictions on an immediate basis. In explaining this, he comments that climate change is making such services important if not imperative. We don't believe much in climate change here at DB, but Sir Evelyn obviously does! Here's something from Wikipedia on his background:
The son of Anthony Gustav de Rothschild (1887–1961) and Yvonne Cahen d'Anvers (1899–1977), he was named after his uncle Evelyn Achille de Rothschild who was killed in action in World War I. Evelyn de Rothschild spent several of his boyhood years in the United States during World War II. He was a pupil at Harrow School and then studied history at Trinity College of Cambridge University but he dropped out before obtaining his degree.
Born into great wealth, Evelyn de Rothschild became one of England's most eligible bachelors, spending his youth travelling, socialising, driving exotic sports cars, enjoying thoroughbred horse racing and playing polo. It was not until age twenty-six that he decided to join N M Rothschild & Sons banking house to be trained in the family's business ...
In 1968, Evelyn de Rothschild was appointed a director of Paris-based de Rothschild Frères while Guy de Rothschild from the French branch of the family became a partner at N M Rothschild & Sons. In 1976 he took over as bank chairman from Victor Rothschild and in 1982 became chairman of Rothschilds Continuation Holdings AG, the co-ordinating company for the merchant banking group.
He became co-chairman of Rothschild Bank A.G., Zurich in 1994, serving until 2003 when he oversaw the merger of the family's French and UK houses. David René de Rothschild of the French branch took over as executive chairman of Rothschild International after the different branches had been merged and Sir Evelyn continued as non-executive chairman of N M Rothschild & Sons. In 2003, he founded with his wife, Lynn Forester de Rothschild, a holding company, E.L. Rothschild, to manage their investments in The Economist and various enterprises in India ... In 1989 he was knighted by HM Queen Elizabeth II, for whom he serves as a financial adviser.
