Alexandre de Rothschild will have to make a name next to his legendary surname of seven generations of bankers. If father, David, was the architect of the reconstruction of the French family bank, he will give more momentum certainly in private equity, currently the third pillar of the bank alongside the advice on mergers and acquisitions and management of Fortune.
