Description
The Jewish Bankers of Wall Street and Their Origins in Europe
Jews have been the object of total discrimination for many millennia. In Europe, they were not allowed to own land, however for reasons to be discussed, they could lend money. Thus, the birth of Jewish banking in Europe will be explored. The success of these bankers is world legend. The Rothschilds, the Baron De Hirsch Family, Jacob Schiff, Goldman Sachs, Salomon Brothers and the Warburg are among some of the most famous and well-known families in this distinguished group. These bankers held prominence but not so much in recent years. They were mostly prominent at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th. In addition to their banking success, they were immensely involved and important in Jewish charity and welfare organizations.
