[edit] Banque Privée Edmond De Rothschild S.A.

Shouldn't this article have some mention of this bank[1] with which this Edmund Rothschild is also associated? According to a Reuters news report displayed in a facsimile of a newspaper article dated October 8, 1987, the then 61 year old (should be 71, right?) is said to have been heading this bank since 1965. The article titulates him as baron and also mentions his "chateau overlooking Lake Geneva". The article was about the bank selling out some of its shares to private investors "in a bid to attract talented bankers and expand the institution", and it is described as "The bank, which handles the investments of a few rich people". I'm watching this in a 1988 video featuring George Hunt lecturing on world banking and the NWO. The video also mentions that this bank is the nucleus of World Conservation Bank. In another newspaper clipping of a Reuters piece dated October 12, it says that the bank was founded in 1924. This article states that the baron has headed the bank since 1985. The video also presente Edmond de Rothschild speaking to the 4th World Wilderness Congress in Colorado in 1987, titled "Worldwide Conservation". __meco (talk) 23:14, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
