The House of Windsor came into being in 1917, when the name was adopted as the British Royal Family's official name by a proclamation of King George V, replacing the historic name of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha. It remains the family name of the current Royal Family.

The management of private investments was the foundation upon which Rothschild banking was built. Since the formation of the first partnership, the Rothschild banking houses managed the assets of, and provided credit to, a small and distinguished clientele, which included members of Royal houses across Europe.

Bankers to Royalty

Through his father's banking house in Frankfurt, in 1816 Nathan Mayer Rothschild (1777-1836) became banker to Leopold I of Belgium (1790-1865). King Leopold’s financial adviser, Baron Stockmar (1787-1863), an associate of Baron Lionel de Rothschild (1808-1879), was also a leading player in the affairs of Queen Victoria (1819-1901). Royal patronage of Rothschild services was enhanced in 1840 when Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg (1819-1861) married Queen Victoria, and the Rothschild banks in London and Frankfurt subsequently handled select payments on behalf of the royal couple. The Royal family relied on the many services provided by the Rothschilds, such as the provision of chocolate for the Queen’s mother’s breakfast and a secure courier service. In 1852, the London house discreetly provided a loan to the Prince Consort for the purchase of the Balmoral estate. In 1885, Queen Victoria, acting on the advice of Gladstone’s Government, raised Nathaniel (‘Natty’) Rothschild to the House of Lords as the first Jewish peer, Lord Rothschild of Tring. Lionel de Rothschild also kept a discrete but watchful eye over the finances of the Queen’s eldest son, the Prince of Wales, who in 1881 had attended the wedding of Leopold de Rothschild (1845-1917) to Marie Perugia (1862-1937).

The name Saxe-Coburg-Gotha came into the British Royal Family in 1840 with the marriage of Queen Victoria to Prince Albert, son of Ernst, Duke of Saxe-Coburg & Gotha. Queen Victoria herself was the last monarch of the House of Hanover.

The Duchy of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (German Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha) was a dual monarchy in Germany. This means that one ruler ruled over two countries, in this case the duchies of Coburg and Gotha. "Saxe" means of Saxony, because there were many small countries but all were ruled by members of the royal house of Saxony.
