Why this case exists
People come first. Not balance sheets.
SocialJustice.org.uk is opening a public-interest inquiry into the effects of Rothschild & Co’s activities on individuals, families, communities and the wider public. The test is simple: where the firm advised, arranged, influenced or benefited from a decision, what happened to the people affected?
We are preparing proposals for a controlled revolution: peaceful, lawful and far-reaching change to the UK’s economic institutions. We will assess what role, if any, organisations such as Rothschild & Co should have in the new economy after that revolution, and what structural reform, conditions or lawful restrictions the evidence may support.
The question that overrides every other
When your organisation helped shape an economic decision, who gained, who lost, who knew, and who took responsibility?
We will not treat financial success as proof of public benefit. Nor will we treat an allegation as proof of harm. Every conclusion must stand on evidence.
This is a public-interest examination initiated by SocialJustice.org.uk. It does not claim the legal powers of a statutory inquiry or a court. The questions are nevertheless serious, and the answers can be tested against documents, public records and the experiences of affected people.

01 / 15A transfer is made every year. Who receives it?
1.For each UK public-debt, sovereign-financing or public-asset transaction in which any Rothschild & Co entity acted, identify the client, date, mandate, precise role, fees and public documents. If there were none, say so expressly.
The UK pays interest on public debt. The aggregate cost is reported publicly, but identifying the ultimate recipients across the changing mix of gilt holders, intermediaries and other arrangements is not straightforward. Payments may reach pension funds, insurers, banks, investment funds, overseas holders and public-sector institutions; not all recipients are private individuals.
We are examining whether Rothschild & Co has had a relevant advisory or transactional role in UK sovereign borrowing, public financing or the sale of public assets, and, if so, what it knew about the distribution of benefits and costs. We do not assume that Rothschild & Co receives UK debt-interest payments.
