British-born financier and a member of Rothschild family, Nathaniel Rothschild has arrived in Sri Lanka last evening in his private jet for a brief visit, Daily Mirror learns.

The 49-year old, who is popularly known as Nat, is the heir apparent to the centuries-old European banking dynasty and the only son of Jacob Rothschild, the 4th Baron Rothschild.

Nat, who is based in Switzerland, is the Executive Chairman and the largest shareholder of UK-listed Volex PLC, a global integrated manufacturing company.

He is expected to meet a few leading local businessmen and corporate leaders in Colombo and is scheduled to visit Colombo Port City on Thursday.

    Nice! Now we can sell the rest of our assets and call it investment. Cheers!

    Is Mr. Rothschild on a diplomatic passport? How was he granted an approval to enter Sri Lanka when its own citizens need FM approval? Also, he doesn't seem to be required to quarantine given it's a 'brief' visit.

    If you know who exactly Rothschilds are you won't be asking those questions. They almost literally own the world. (richest men of earth - and women - multi trillionaires - of course not on the list) . One thin I can tell you for sure, what ever it is he has Covid is not one of them

    He belongs to the Jewish dynasty that built its wealth by a combination of outward honesty and inward criminality over a century in Europe. It is highly dangerous to mix with this family.

    There is nothing left to sell, as Ranil Wickremasinghe had already sold and mortgaged the people of Sri Lanka.
