DESCRIPTION: Sir Ernest Cassel (1852-1921) was a German-born banker raised in the Ashkenazi Jewish faith who arrived penniless in Liverpool aged sixteen in 1869 and rose to become King Edward VII’s financial adviser and trusted friend. Cassel was one of the most astute financial minds of his generation and showed early promise clerking for an Anglo-Egyptian bank in Paris where he became mentor of revered European banker Baron Maurice de Hirsch. Hirsch secured Cassel a position in the London merchant banker Bischoffsheim and Goldschmidt when the Franco-Prussian War necessitated a swift exit from Paris.
