US EditionEpstein files show Swiss bank CEO de Rothschild kept up years‑long personal contact with financier
Emails show Ariane de Rothschild enlisted Jeffrey Epstein to mediate a family dispute over the Rothschild name that lasted until 2018, highlighting Epstein's unexpected role.
- According to the US Department of Justice, Ariane de Rothschild maintained years‑long contact with Jeffrey Epstein, including a 2015 email and 2012 exchanges.
- A naming dispute erupted when David de Rothschild, head of his investment bank in France, renamed his firm Rothschild & Co, which Ariane saw as harming investor confidence; the 2018 conflict ended with an agreement involving Jacob Rothschild, British branch family member.
- Epstein directly asked Ariane to call him and stepped in as a mediator in the family conflict, with email exchanges predating his 2019 death in jail.
- The disclosures threaten reputational damage for Ariane de Rothschild and the Edmond de Rothschild group, though reporters caution that being named is not itself evidence of wrongdoing.
- The files further reveal a wider network, with 2012 Sydney contacts and images linked to Ghislaine Maxwell and assistant Sarah Kellen in U.S. Department of Justice files.
