Two of the best-known business clans in global finance are joining forces, with the Rothschild banking dynasty set to acquire a stake in the Rockefeller group's wealth and asset management business.

Chaired by Lord Jacob Rothschild, RIT Capital Partners is a £1.9 billion ($3 billion) investment trust, which mainly focuses on capital growth through investing in a range of assets from equities to bonds and private equity from around the world. Now, the trust says it’s taking up a 37 per cent stake for an undisclosed sum in the parent company of Rockefeller & Co that was previously held by Société Générale Private Banking.
Société Générale, which has owned a stake in the Rockefeller wealth and asset management since 2008, appointed a new head of private banking in March, as it moved to overhaul the business.

The firms intend to work on investment solutions and other areas of shared expertise to further serve the needs of their clients and investors according to the statement.

The partnerships unite 96-year-old David Rockefeller, and Jacob Rothschild, 76 – whose personal ties span five decades and as stated by Rockefeller “the connection between the two families remains very strong.”

Lord Rothschild, chairman of RIT, added, “The creation of this partnership with the Rockefeller family is truly historic. We look forward to the development of our joint investment activities across the global capital markets.”

The deal is expected to be finalized by the end of September.

Established in 1882 by John D. Rockefeller, an American industrialist and one of the richest men in recent history, Rockefeller & Co provides asset management and advisory services and has $34 billion (£21.78 billion) of assets under administration.

The Rothschild banking dynasty started when Mayer Amschel Rothschild opened a business in Frankfurt in the late 18th century.

The family’s name is associated with some historical deals, such as helping finance Britain's war against Napoleon in the 19th century and raising funds for a loan allowing the British government to buy the Suez canal.

The Rockefeller & the Morgan families are the American front for the powerful Rothschild banking family dynasty primarily based in London. Both families were involved extending Rothschild banking family dynasty to the central bank of U.S. also known as the Federal Reserve.  Up to 2004 the price of gold was set in N.M. Rothschild bank in London.  The LIBOR rate or London Inter-bank Offered Rate is the bench mark rate that banks lend to each other is calculated in London. Senator Nelson Aldrich was the grandfather of today’s powerful Rockefellers whose daughter Abby married into the Rockefeller family & sponsor of the Federal Reserve Act.  Paul Warburg was the brother in law to the Rothschilds & the architect of the Federal Reserve act.    The Federal Reserve act was planned in secret in 1910 on Jekyll Island, Georgia.  Also in on the in scheme were representing J.P. Morgan was Harry P. Davison & Benjamin Strong Jr. The Federal Reserve act was passed on the day before Christmas Eve in 1913 so that its opponents would be at home with their families.  The Fed is now the bank of issue & this is unconstitutional because only congress should have the power “to coin” money.  The government now has to borrow money from the Fed. After gaining control of the Federal Reserve they used the fractional reserve system to fund both sides of World War I in 1914.  Paul Warburg’s brother Max advised the Kaiser of Germany.  His other brother Felix was the adviser to the German delegation to the Paris peace conference in 1919.  The Warburg team advised the Germans to borrow funds from foreign banks to pay for the repartitions.  These foreign banks were likely the Rothschild’s & their cronies. Wars are the most profitable things for Central Bank owners.  The 16th amendment to the constitution was also passed 1913 to legalize taxation without representation to insure payment for the war.  Doing his part JP Morgan bought 25 of the major newspapers to promote U.S. involvement in World War I.

The OFFICIAL UNITING of Zionism and Freemasonry..a match which makes for " strange bedfellows" BUT with the same GOAL-WORLD DOMINATI ON and the same ETHIC- a belief in THEIR SUPERIORITY over we the "cockroaches" ( a word used by one of the Bilderberg members at the recent May meeting)

...suuuuuuuure appearing as if doing business as usual... undoubtedly a move to facilitate their NWO agenda... but they are going down, a wasted effort... I think they need to plan to take a pill before the world is on them... matter of time.
