Sexual harassment
Several women, speaking anonymously to The Guardian in 2025, claimed he engaged in serious misconduct in the mid to late 1990s. They say they felt unable to come forward while he was alive due to his influence within the bank and British establishment. The allegations have surfaced two years after his death. Bloomberg wrote that "at least six" women have alleged sexual misconduct over 3 decades, including oral rape, forced kissing, and groping. These incidents reportedly took place before and after his retirement as chairman of N.M. Rothschild & Sons in 2004.[1]
Career
Evelyn de Rothschild was appointed a director of Paris-based de Rothschild Frères in 1968 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.[2]
In 2003, he founded with his third wife, Lynn Forester de Rothschild, a holding company, E.L. Rothschild, to manage their investments in The Economist and various enterprises in India.[3]
