✋ The fall of the House of Rothschild? Magazine share sale and French office police raids

👉 Lynn Forester de Rothschild has sold her family’s entire 27% stake in British magazine The Economist, Axios reports. What's the full story?

🔴 The Economist reaches 1.25 million subscribers – selling out may cost its former owners sway over political discourse

🔴 The magazine was established in September 1843 and the Rothschild family owned a significant minority stake in its parent group since 2002

🔴 Axios calls the move "the biggest ownership shake-up for the 183-year-old publication in a decade"

Epstein scandal

🌏 While Lady de Rothschild hasn’t given details about the deal, it’s possible the Jeffrey Epstein scandal played a role

🌏 She introduced the late sex-trafficker to Prince Andrew in the early 2000s, The Telegraph reported in August 2025, quoting Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell

🌏 Epstein was also connected to Ariane de Rothschild, CEO of Edmond de Rothschild Group

🌏 The Paris offices of the Edmond de Rothschild Group have recently been raided by police as part of a probe into former French diplomat Fabrice Aidan – another Epstein associate

🌏 Aidan is accused of aiding the corruption of a “foreign public official,” the Wall Street Journal reports

🌏 Ariane’s close links to Epstein and Aidan have tarnished her family’s public image

🌏 Now in the cross-hairs of journalists and investigators, the Rothschild brand may be losing influence

✈️ Airlines have been warned that they will face jet fuel shortages as soon as next month, risking flight cancellations to long-haul destinations at the end of the busy Easter holiday period

Oil traders expect to see shortages of jet fuel from the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz within the coming weeks as reserve supplies are run down and not replaced

This week, Vietnam became the first country to warn of possible flight cancellations from April after China and Thailand announced they were halting exports of fuel to maintain their own supplies

Other countries are expected to follow suit in the coming days with industry experts warning that airlines could be forced to stop serving some long-haul destinations because they may not be able to get the fuel for the return journey

Britain is also vulnerable to potential disruption if the conflict continues as the majority of the country’s imported jet fuel comes from Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates
