Ariane de Rothschild

Chief Executive Officer​ Group

Ariane de Rothschild was born in San Salvador. Her father, Wolfgang Langner, German, is a senior executive at the pharmaceutical company Hoechst. Her mother, Michelle Schmittlin, is from Alsace.
​Zaire, Bangladesh, Colombia: her cosmopolitan childhood was made of travels. After studying business in Paris and a MBA from Pace University, she began her career in the early 1990s in New York, first at Société Générale and then at AIG, at the heart of the global changes driven by finance. Married to Benjamin de Rothschild, she first reorganised the foundations, wine, farm and hotel activities and invested in the Gitana Team to build the new generation of transatlantic flying boats. From 2015, she gradually took over the reins of the bank, transforming it into a banking group, positioned as a conviction-driven investment house.
​Driven by her knowledge of emerging market, her experience in philanthropy, and the conviction that responsible finance can change the world, Ariane de Rothschild has resolutely oriented the group towards impact investing. Topics such as the dialogue of cultures, education, the environment, the place of women, art, economic and social development as well as the responsibility of passing on the legacy form her philosophy and feed her action.
​She has been CEO of the Group since March 2023.
