Inside the 240-Foot Bad-Boy Superyacht That Stars in Christopher Nolan’s ‘Tenet’

The 240-foot military-style 'planet nine' made the perfect hideout for the movie's bad guy. a 59-mph sailing cat plays a supporting role., howard walker, howard walker's most recent stories.

Superyacht Planet 9 Stars in Chriistopher Nolan Blockbuster

With a production budget reportedly in excess of $200 million, Nolan didn’t hold back when it came to picking the coolest “props” for his sci-fi thriller. The coolest of them all? Without doubt, the spectacular 240-foot superyacht Planet Nine , which doubled as the lair of Tenet’s Russian baddie, Andrei Sator, played so despicably well by Kenneth Branagh.

Built by the Italian yard Admiral Yachts in 2018, the world-girding, high-luxury ice-breaker is currently on the market through Fraser Yachts for a jaw-dropping $100 million. She’s also available for charter at up to $850,000 a week. Plus expenses, of course.

Superyacht Planet 9 Stars in Chriistopher Nolan Blockbuster Tenet

The 240-foot Admiral superyacht and the stylish 33-fooot Riva Aquariva not only gave the movie a backdrop but plenty of waterborne action.  Warner Bros.

The yacht scenes take place with Planet Nine anchored off Ravello on the azure-blue waters of Italy’s picturesque Amalfi Coast. Describing Planet Nine in the in-depth Tenet production notes supplied to Robb Report by Warner Bros. Pictures, Branagh says: “So this boat—its military nature, its color, its angularity—takes you inside the mind of Andrei Sator, projecting an image that is sinister and threatening,”

Yet Nathan Crowley, the movie’s production designer, felt the yacht’s rugged lines weren’t quite sinister enough: “We added a rocket launcher on the back to feed into that semi-military look that says ‘Don’t come near this yacht.’”

Working with a $100 million superyacht—its owner is said to be billionaire Nathaniel Rothschild, 49, of the Rothschild banking family—also posed a few serious headaches for Crowley and his team. “When you rent a giant superyacht, you try not to do any damage. So when the crew came onboard carrying all that equipment, it was important that anything that could get chipped was protected,” Crowley said.

Sailing Catamarans Star in Chriistopher Nolan Blockbuster Tenet

The 50-foot sailing cat in the movie was so fast that the director had to use a helicopter to shoot the racing sequences. One of the actors called the ride “exhilarating but quite terrifying.”  Warner Bros.

In fact, four members of the film crew were assigned to do nothing but safeguard the yacht from any dings and dents. And when interior furniture had to be moved around, the job was assigned to Planet Nine ‘s crew.

One other headache for Crowley turned out to be the yacht’s helipad. While its 10-ton capacity was enough to support the boat’s current chopper, an MD Explorer 902, it wasn’t enough to withstand the huge weight of Sator’s Russian-made Mil mi-8 twin-turbine helicopter.

“We had to figure out how to complete the helicopter sequence without it actually touching down,” says executive producer Thomas Hayslip. “Thankfully we were able to find a great crew out of Eastern Europe that does search and rescue. They brought the helicopter in and just barely hovered, so it looks like the wheels are on the yacht. They weren’t. It was basically the thickness of a piece of paper, they were that precise.”

This Riva Aquariva Stars in Chriistopher Nolan Blockbuster Tenet

The movie’s hero uses a sleek 33-foot Riva to approach the villain’s superyacht.  Warner Bros.

For boat lovers, there’s one scene guaranteed to set hearts racing. In it, lead character—who is simply called The Protagonist, and played by John David Washington—speeds out to Planet Nine behind the wheel of a gorgeous Riva 33 Aquariva Super launch to confront the villains.

But for arguably the film’s most breathtaking maritime action, Nolan and his crew moved to Southampton on England’s south coast. There, bad-guy Sator gets his on-screen kicks match-sailing his two, state-of-the-art F50 foiling catamarans. The cats are fast and furious. For the sailing scenes, Tenet’s marine coordinator Neil Andrea—he’s famous for pulling together the boats for Nolan’s WWII epic, Dunkirk —approached the UK-based SailGP team which oversees F50 racing. They provided the two catamarans and the skippers for filming.

One problem they faced? With top speeds of over 58 mph, the America’s Cup-style cats were way too fast for the camera boat to keep up. The film crew had to switch to a helicopter.

“Planet Nine” was designed to look like a rough-and-ready military vessel, but the movie’s producers assigned four crew to make sure that nothing was damaged during filming.  Fraser Yachts

Andrei Sator’s wife in the film, played by towering Australian actor Elizabeth Debicki, described her first time in the F50. “When three of us were hanging on the side and the boat lifted out of the water, I’ve never felt anything like it,” she said. “It was exhilarating, but quite terrifying.”

The vessel, Planet Nine, moored in St George’s Harbour, is quite a sight and comes with, among other things, its own helipad.

The boat, built in Italy in 2018, is apparently owned by Nat Rothschild – a member of the Rothschild family, whose net worth is said to be $1 billion.

The 240ft-long vessel can accommodate 12 guests in 9 cabins and was designed by Tim Heywood to be “one of the world’s foremost explorer yachts”.

According to its builders , Admiral, the ship comes with a theatre room equipped with a 119in large screen.

The teak panelled Beach Club is designed for use in hot and cold climates and there is a spa which has a foldable bulwark which, when open, becomes a large sunbathing and lounging area on the sea.

Rothschild Dynasty’s Heir Is Selling His Luxury Superyacht for Almost $100 Million

Profile picture for user The Wealth Advisor

(Auto Evolution) - Sometimes, billionaires’ toys can become just as famous as their owners, even it happens due to reasons that might be considered negative. The majestic Planet Nine, although a spectacular yacht in its own right, made headlines years ago when it was at the center of a legal scandal. Now, it’s back on the market, ready to write a different story.

Rothschild is one of those names that needs no introduction. As the heir of the Baron Rothschild title, along with the famous European banking business, Nathaniel (Nat) Rothschild is also known for owning several high-class toys, including private jets and yachts. It was many years ago that he commissioned what was then known as “ Project Nato ,” a gorgeous explorer meant to travel the world. A lot of billionaires like to keep their  luxury purchases  private, but Nat’s future superyacht became famous when a high court case  broke out,  back in 2012. The banking tycoon and the initial Monaco-based builder of the vessel had a conflict over the payments and the progress of the construction. A few years later, the project was moved to Admiral Yachts and became this shipyard’s second largest model, known as Planet Nine. So, we could say that the Rothschild heir literally fought for this luxury vessel, a 270-foot (73 meters) explorer. With an exterior design by Tim Heywood Design and an interior by Fitz Interior, Planet Nine was meant to be as comfortable and intimate as a villa, according to the builder, while also being equipped for thrilling adventures. The Owner’s private area unfolds over 300 square meters (3,200 square feet), with the main cabin on the aft and a second cabin, plus a lounge area, on the bow. Guests onboard can enjoy a panoramic observatory lounge, a theater room with a 119” screen, and a spa room with a large terrace. Another distinctive  feature  of Planet Nine is its dedicated helicopter area, which includes not just a helipad for an Airbus H 130 model, and a hangar with refueling capabilities, but even a dedicated cabin and office for the helicopter pilot, which is very rare for a yacht of this size. The legal dispute over “ Project Nato ” is now in the past, and Rothschild is parting with his luxury toy, listed for a whopping $96 million (€85 million). Another billionaire will write a new chapter on board Planet Nine. By  Otilia Drăgan 30 Nov 2021

'My winners are ahead of my losers and that’s what business is about': Nat Rothschild on money, modesty and feeling a bit Swiss

nathaniel philip rothschild yacht

When they were eight years old, Nat Rothschild and George Osborne built a den behind the music block at Colet Court, their prep school, from discarded wooden panels, fence sticks and branches lugged from the towpath that ran between the school’s boundary and the Thames. They agreed, as they settled on upturned boxes and swapped Panini football stickers, that it was the best hideout in the world.

The pair, who sat side-by-side in class, were separated at 13 when Osborne graduated to St Paul’s and Rothschild was sent to Eton in the footsteps of his father, Jacob, 4th Baron Rothschild. They were reunited at Oxford, where both were members of the Bullingdon Club.

But in 2008, after 30 years of friendship, they had a spectacular falling-out after an evening aboard the yacht of Oleg Deripaska, the Russian oligarch, in Corfu. Osborne gossiped to journalists that Peter Mandelson had been there too, and had allegedly “poured poison” into his ear about Gordon Brown (then Prime Minister). Rothschild was furious at this “breach of privacy” and wrote to The Times accusing Osborne of trying to solicit from Deripaska a £50,000 donation for the Conservatives (something Osborne denies).

So I’m surprised when Rothschild, 43, says: “We are on very good terms now,” and that he has “definite” plans to invite Osborne to dinner. “The moment they go into opposition,” he says, “he’ll be the first person I invite round.” He refuses to call it a “fall-out”, making light of the spat that nearly cost Osborne his political career. “I last saw him at [PR] Matthew Freud’s 50th,” he says, “And I see him every year in Davos. He was very clever [at school], very academic. I have vivid memories of the den.”

Today his hideout is a Bond villain’s lair tucked behind metal gates in Battersea. When I arrive he’s standing, hands in pockets, behind an expanse of glass, his black German shepherd baying and skittering about the floor. There’s an absence about him — he doesn’t apologise when his dog paws me with mud, or shake hands or take my coat.

His place is vast and covered with art — Damien Hirsts, photographs of topless girls, panels of cleavage, Julian Opie pole dancers — but he makes a point of saying he’s renting — “squatting” — and that home is Klosters, Switzerland. He used to have houses all over the world, he says, but “I have far fewer than I used to”.

“I’m only in London to finish my degree,” he explains, an MSc in Addiction Studies at the Institute of Psychiatry. He gives me a copy of his thesis “to keep”. Has he struggled with addiction? “No. A lot of my family members going back generations have had problems — more on the mental health side, but there’s a lot of overlap.” Among them, his cousin Raphael de Rothschild, who died of a heroin overdose on a New York pavement at 23, and his uncle Amschel, who hanged himself in a Paris hotel room in 1996. He adds that his girlfriend is a clinical psychologist, but “recoils at being written about”.

We’re here to talk about Maaxi, the app that he’s launching with Gabi Campo, an Israeli former cyber intelligence officer. It’s a brilliant idea, allowing Londoners to share black taxis with up to five strangers on the same route, a computer calculating the cost between them. Rothschild believes it will “save the taxi industry”.

“It fills a huge gap in the market place. It has enormous social and environmental benefits [and] will change the way Londoners move around.” It’s “cheaper to the consumer over a mile and a half” than the bus, and “a third of the price of Uber. Intellectually it should work”. He describes it as a “sophisticated” version of cab sharing in Moscow or Jamaica, “where they put you on the roof when the car has filled up”. Can it be exported to other cities? “Yes, but that’s not our ambition. Our ambition is the London market – a $7bn market.”

Rothschild’s personal wealth is estimated at £523million, much of it self-made, and he is ranked 192nd on The Sunday Times rich list — above both his father (216th) and relatives Sir Evelyn and Lady Rothschild (226th). He gives around £1million a year to charity.

He has, of course, plenty of experience building companies — not all successful. He denies Bumi, the Indonesian mining company he co-founded with £1.2billion of City money, has tarnished his reputation. It lost two-thirds of its value after allegations of financial irregularities in its Indonesian sphere of activities, and Rothschild now calls the venture “a mistake”.

“[In] business you win some, you lose some. I still own 18 per cent of the company.” He blames the losses on a plunge in coal prices, adding: “There are still investors who have chosen to ride the cycle.”

He prefers to concentrate on “successes” — “I raised $2.2 billion for [the oil company] Genel,” he says. “Without blowing my trumpet, I was chairman of one of the biggest public companies in France by the time I was 28.” He was also a partner at Atticus, which in 2007 was one of the world’s largest hedge funds with $20 billion under management.

“I’ve made quite a lot of money and I’ve lost quite a lot of money. But my winners are ahead of my losers and that’s what business is about. I’ve been on the boards of some of the world’s biggest companies. I don’t want to sound like an arrogant f****r, but I’ve got hundreds of investments.”

Rothschild is at greatest ease talking about money. Ask about his personal life, and it’s like prodding an infected tooth. Of growing up in the great banking family, he says: “Well I went to boarding school, so I grew up there.”

When questioned about his early twenties in New York — where he was said to have hosted drug-fuelled parties — and his tempestuous three-year marriage to model Annabelle Nielson, he fixes me with grey eyes. “I find it bizarre that I’m still linked with someone who I was involved with literally 20 years ago.”

Attracting models, he admits, “wasn’t very difficult”. He quickly becomes defensive: “Some of the things said about me are fiction.” The story he prefers is: “I went to university, got a 2:1, started a hedge fund, built it into one of the top five in the world.” He says things “a few ex-models say about me [are] just preposterous”.

He won’t talk about being a Rothschild — “boring” — and says that his name makes no difference. “You get treated differently if you are successful.”

He says he’s “perfectly happy to admit” that he doesn’t get on with his father. “Essentially we’re in competition. Business is a big thing for him and for me.” Do they gather at Christmas? “No, because we are a family of Jewish origin.” Does he send his father birthday cards? “I did actually send him a birthday card this year.”

He is “closest” to his mother, Serena Mary Dunn, a Canadian. It says something of this allegiance that he carries a Canadian passport. “I’m not a British citizen. I think of myself as Swiss — ultimately I will get Swiss citizenship.”

He shares his mother’s love of horses — “we have about a hundred” — and leaps up to show me a photograph of “a race I won, the King Edward VII.”

Does he want children? “That’s certainly high on my list of things to do.”

He doesn’t gamble or smoke, and drinks only “occasionally”. He doesn’t read, or go to the cinema, but is “passionate” about skiing. “I’m modest, you can tell, but the one thing I’m going to be immodest about is that I’m a very good skier.”

Also: “I really like football.” He supports Chelsea, owned by his friend Roman Abramovich. “Not a close friend. He wouldn’t mind me saying that I’ve managed money for him in the past.”

He’s careful about his inner circle — “If people are amoral, I certainly have no interest in being friends with them.”

Was he friends with Saif Gaddafi? “Yes, but everyone thought he was credible. Howard Davis, David Khalili, Lord Alliance, Tony Blair.” He pauses. “[And] little old Nat Rothschild thought he was credible too.”

20 Things You Didn’t Know about Nathaniel Rothschild

Nathaniel Rothschild

Rothschild is a prominent name in the history of Britain since it is a generation of tycoons whose focus is in investments. The family is among the wealthiest families in the world. Nathaniel is one of them and the next in line to defend the big name of the family. Nathaniel’s childhood was full of fun and immoral activities that might have been sparked by his wealthy family. While in college, ladies were all over him as they tried identifying themselves with the great family. Despite spending his early life in the comfort zone, he later changed and became an aggressive investor. He regained his lost glory and is now one of the wealthiest people today . Get to know more about the tycoon by checking these facts about him.

1. He is the youngest of his siblings

Nathaniel Rothschild is the youngest among the four siblings and the only son of Jacob Rothschild and Serena Mary. He was born on July 12, 1971, to a Jewish father and Christian mother. His father is a banker in British investment, a prominent member of Rothschild banking family and an honorary president of the Jewish Policy Research Institute. His mother was a racehorse owner in Britain; she died on January 13, 2019.

2. His education

Nathaniel went to Colet Court where he studied with George Osborne, the former Chancellor of Exchequer. He later went to Elton College and Wadham College, to study history. Nathaniel then joined Oxford for his masters, where he was fond of luxuries that were not in line with his educational interests. After graduation, he started his investment journey.

3. He is the heir to the title held by his father

Rothschild and Company Bank has been under the ownership of Rothschild’s family, and the management is hereditary. Nathaniel is the one to succeed his father in possession of the title “Baron Rothschild,” according to Super Yacht Fan . Rothschild’s primary focus is the banking business, especially Rothschild and Company Bank. Being the only son in the family allowed him to inherit the management of the prominent bank of the family. Nathaniel has, however, always been active in the businesses of the family and banking and investing.

4. He has been married twice

Nathaniel has been in two marriages, with one leading to a divorce. The first marriage was with a model and socialite, Annabelle Neilson. They got married in 1994 and divorced in 1997 before having children together. His parents were not happy with their son’s decision to marry Anabelle, and he eloped with her to Las Vegas. Annabelle died in July 2018. In August 2016, Nathaniel went ahead to marry Loretta Basey, who is a former model. They have a son together.

5. He owns a private jet

A private jet is a symbol of wealth, and Nathaniel has a Bombardier Global 600 private jet with the registration N4T. The plane was once used by Bumi for 18 months to fly around the world’s biggest cities, and Nathaniel ended up charging them heftily. It is sometimes available for hire by interested parties, but he uses it to move to places he wishes to visit. The private plane costs $60 million and accommodates up to 14 passengers.

6. He hides a series of trusts in Switzerland

Most of the investments of Nathaniel are in the United Kingdom, but he hides some of the trusts in Switzerland, where he lives. Rumors have it that the trusts are worth £40 billion. The strategy of protecting these trusts might be a way to make him concentrate in accumulating his wealth. Besides, Switzerland has been preferred by most investors to stash their wealth as a way of reducing their tax liabilities since it is considered a tax haven.

7. He stays with his family in Switzerland

Nathaniel is known to be a lover of more beautiful things in life and spends time in the places that he loves. When Nathaniel got married to Loretta, they lived in New York for some time before moving to Switzerland in 2000. His father was not happy with his decision to move to Switzerland, but Nathaniel seems to enjoy the place and spends most of his time in his house. The couple adopted the citizenship of Switzerland and are paying their tax obligations. He has other homes in Moscow, Paris, London, Greece and New York and uses his jet to move around his homes.

8. He was once into drug abuse

The start of something is immaterial; the end is what matters as Nathaniel proves to the world. Despite being a prominent person, Nathaniel had some ups and downs as he was growing. According to Celeb Family , Nathaniel was known for vandalism and drug abuse. He belonged to Bullingdon club that influenced him to drugs. Some of Nathaniel’s friends who spent time drinking with him say that he could drink the whole night and then spend the day sleeping while dressed in his formal suit. During this time, Nathaniel had not taken full control of his life and seemed to be just enjoying the wealth of his father. As he grew up, he realized that he had a great name to protect and changed for the better. Nathaniel stopped using drugs and focused on becoming a great person in the future. The change initiative worked for him, and he has been successful in his career and protecting his father’s legacy.

9. Career history

After deciding to focus in building the best life for himself, Nathaniel worked in various sectors. He had a broad interest in business and hence worked mainly in the investment sectors. From 1996 to 2009, Nathaniel was a co-chairman of Atticus Capital. He also worked in Asia Resource Minerals, where he developed the interest to venture into mining, especially in other continents that have precious minerals. He is currently the chairman of JNR limited.

10. He is a member of several boards

Through his excellent work and knowledge in investment, Nathaniel is a member of many committees. He is a member of Belfer Center’s International council which is in Harvard. Nathaniel is also part of the board of Brookings Institution serving in the advisory council. He is also an advisory board member at Barrick Gold Corporation. Being a member in such committees widens his skills in business through the various interactions and sharing of ideas.

11. He was rebellious during his childhood

It is hard to handle a rebellious person, and most of them end up unsuccessful. Nathaniel’s childhood was full of rebellion, pride, and ignorance, leading many people to predict a difficult life for him. He once visited a friend and resisted any conformism or instruction from anybody. Despite the rebellious attitude, he was willing to take risks, and perhaps that was what led him to success.

12. He has a personal net worth of $1 billion

Rothschild’s family is among the wealthiest families in the world with some sources claiming the family’s income to be $400 billion. Being a member of the family, Nathaniel has a net worth of $1 billion. Most of his wealth seems inherited, but that is not the case. He is a very aggressive businessman and a risk-taker thus the wealth is a product of his hard work. The primary sources of his wealth are banking, investments, and real estate.

13. He has a private investment vehicle

Nathaniel has a private investment vehicle, NRI. The investment vehicles identify the investment opportunities that are available in the neighborhood and proceed to invest in various industries, including mining and real estate. NRI has expanded and has offices in Lima, Peru, Florida, and Miami. It has many projects as seen in their website and is run by management under the advice of Nathaniel.

14. He is linked to the son of Muammar Gaddafi

Nathaniel has essential links with Muammar’s son Saif al-Islam Gaddafi, who is a suspect for various crimes associated with the oil wells in Libya. The two met in their educational journey, and since they are both investors, they shared ideas. Saif attended Nathaniel’s 37th birthday, and the friendship has resulted in the two visiting each other. The close relationship between the two led to the organization of a dinner in New York to honor their friendship. However, the friendship of the two is only social since they never did businesses together. Nevertheless, there are some claims that Nathaniel is interested in the oil wells in Libya.

15. He is likely to become the richest in Rothschild’s family

The generation of Rothschild is wealthy, but they are putting different efforts to either maintain or increase their wealth. Nathaniel is the most hardworking in the family, and he has made several investments in various sectors, that reap profits in billions. Nathaniel is not afraid of putting any amount of money to any business in which he sees the potential. He might be the next most productive member of the family if he goes on with that enterprising spirit.

16. He made a loss of £170 million in his oil company

Business involves a lot of risks; one can either make a profit or a loss in business. Despite the high profile in the business world, Nathaniel was a victim of a significant loss of £170million in his oil company in 2017. Nathan’s shares in the company in 2012 were worth £190 million, but after the company made losses, his shares dropped to a worth of £21 million. The significant decline in the company led to most of the people quitting the company, including the advisory board leaving Nathaniel nursing the £170 million loss alone.

17. He was once termed as a “puppet master.”

It is always essential to ensure that we can account for the things we say against other people since failure to do so leads to them having a wrong perception on us. Nathaniel was once part of a meeting that later resulted to him being called a “puppet master.” The meeting was attended by Nathaniel, Oligarch Oleg, and Lord Mandelson. He later claimed that the meeting was over a shady deal and reported it to daily mail who posted it. Daily mail then found the whole thing to be fiction and apologized to their readers. The judge rejected the shady deal claims saying that Nathan was suffering a memory loss and was not sure of what he was saying. The allegations hence led to him being called a “puppet master” by the judges.

18. He owns the yacht Planet Nine

The yacht Planet Nine is one of the most famous yachts. Nathaniel owns the 73-meter long boat built by Admiral Yachts. The yachts name is a fictitious name of the ninth planet in the solar system. It was designed in 2018 at a total cost of $100 million and has a capacity for 16 guests in 8 cabins and 26 members of the crew in 3 cabins. He was found to be the owner after a legal dispute affecting it, and the yacht is now available for sale by Nathaniel at £ 85 million after the dispute was resolved.

19. His stand on money and investment

Nathaniel believes in unity. In one of his quotes, he encourages that when brothers work together, the house will be complete. When brothers get united according to him, nobody can compete against them. This quote by Nathaniel reflects the unity that exists in the family that places them at the top as far as wealth is concerned. Another quote by him is about the control of the money and the government. He says that the government is the one that controls the issuing of money and hence to control the government, you must control the issuance of money. Most of his quotes are in the line of making more money.

20. Racehorse Nathaniel is named after him

Naming our favorite pets might be based on the people we love most. Nathaniel’s mother, Lady Rothschild, used the name of her son on a horse she owned. Racehorse Nathaniel was his mother’s favorite horse that participated in various competitions including that of King George IV and Queen Elizabeth in 2011.

Who is Nat Rothschild?

Who is Nat Rothschild?

Nat Rothschild, AKA Nathaniel Philip Victor James Rothschild, is back. According to the Financial Times , he's got a new 600m listed vehicle to invest in the mining sector.

Evidently, it is not in your power to become Nat. However, as a 39 year old financial scion who belatedly pursued a career in the City, it may be in your interest to know more about him. Here are the facts, digested.

1) He's a Rothschild

Nathaniel Victor will become a baron. He reputedly has a family trust fund worth 500m .

2) He's a reformed libertine

Nowadays he only drinks diet coke. Once he is said to have drunk and partied through the night and then slept through the day.

3) He was educated at Oxford and Eton

At Oxford he was a party beast. At Eton he was supposedly sent to live with a master in order to subdue his behaviour.

3) He didn't go into financial services until he was 25

Having reformed himself aged 25, Rothschild got a job at Gleacher Partners , a NY-based M&A boutique run by a friend of his father (Gleacher Partners has since merged with Broadpoint Securities to form Broadpoint Gleacher).

Eric Gleacher described him as, 'floundering.'

4) Smoking cigarettes has contributed to his career

Whilst at Gleacher, Rothschild went out for cigarette and encountered 29 year old Timothy R. Barakett, who was trying to raise funds for a new hedge fund, Atticus. Despite having worked at Gleacher for less than 1 year, he asked Barakett for a job. Barakett declined, but later relented. Rothschild subsequently became the co-chair of Atticus.

5) He's a failed hedge fund manager

At one stage, Atticus had $20bn under management. At another stage, it was forced to close due to heavy losses.

6) He knows lots of rich Russians

Nat Rothschild is said to have been a close advisor to Oleg Deripaska and was involved in an unfortunate incident involving a yacht, George Osborne and a letter to the Times.

7) He has another investment vehicle

JNR Limited 'is dedicated to finding investment opportunities in Russia and Eastern Europe. According to the New York Times , JNR is based in London and employs a 'small crew of investment bankers.'

author-card-avatar

Bitchy little men me thinks....maybe your great grand children will suffer a similar diatribe......but they will never get in to the college.........

no one is perfect ~ common folks like me cannot understand the pressure faced by rich people but would imagine it to be terrible.

he traded on his name - if he had been called Ali Desai he would have gotten nowhere !

just another well-connected dreamer about to lose his investors a bucket-load. a bit like that Jamie Allsop chap who purported to know all about investments in Africa.

"if i were those rich russian investors i would be thinking twice in investing with a guy whos investments have failed"

If it all goes wrong, they can always take some more. I like!

Look Inside a Spectacular Beachfront Bachelor Pad in Rio de Janeiro

Rothschild an inveterate traveler now divides his time between his Rio home and a handful of others

This article originally appeared in the February 2011 issue of Architectural Digest.

Glamour as well as mystery seem to surround the Honourable Nathaniel Philip Victor James Rothschild wherever he goes. Scion of the world's best known—and chicest—banking dynasty, he's a financial titan and international playboy who appears to spend most of his time aloft in his extensively equipped Gulfstream jet, flying between his homes in Klosters, Switzerland; London; New York; Paris; Moscow; and Corfu. While Rothschild is intensely private, details of his personal life, even his vacations, often make the papers in his native England, given that his entourage generally includes a few cabinet ministers, movie stars, models, and Russian oligarchs.

The 39-year-old Rothschild, known as Nat to friends, recently added another jewel to his crown of domiciles. In Rio de Janeiro he now owns a spectacularly sited beachfront property, a glass house built on a lush hillside in the 1980s by Claudio Bernardes, one of Brazil's most esteemed modern architects.

But by the time Rothschild acquired it, the place had seen better days. “It was in very bad condition when we found it,” says his Paris-based interior designer, Tino Zervudachi, whose anxiety only increased when Rothschild told him he wanted the entire place more or less rebuilt in a year.

Though London-born Zervudachi is himself a very worldly figure—and a partner in the blue-chip firm Mlinaric, Henry & Zervudachi—this was his first project in Brazil. Going native, he quickly surmised, was the way to proceed. “I wanted to use as much local material as we could, including the furniture and art,” he says. “I became enamored of Brazilian design. Everything is deeply connected to nature and seems to relate to its overpowering presence in the country. There is just this incredible ebullience of flora and fauna.”

The glasstop table in the living room is from Firma Casa

Working with a local architect, Luciano Pedrosa, he reconfigured the five-bedroom house, creating a huge glass-roofed great room for living and dining. Exotic hardwoods and stones glisten throughout, but there is relatively little in the way of textiles. “In tropical settings fabric retains humidity . . . which makes it rather disagreeable,” says Zervudachi in his clipped British accent. While he designed several major furnishings for the home, which were produced by Brazilian Afranio Cunha, he also bought a number of Brazilian-modern pieces, such as a pair of Whale chairs by Julia Krantz. Outdoors, on a terrace facing the sea, Zervudachi laid out what has become the urbane centerpiece of the residence: a pool whose elaborate tile design echoes the wave patterns on the famous Rio promenades by Roberto Burle Marx.

For Zervudachi's Oxford-educated client, in line to become the fifth Baron Rothschild, the good taste to savor all this is just in the blood. Waddesdon Manor, his family's turreted stone mansion in Buckinghamshire, is a signature example of the renowned style Rothschild. The future baron must be pleased with the results achieved in Rio, as he is now planning an addition. And, press-shy as he is, he has allowed his place to be published here. (“I'm rather surprised,” confides Zervudachi.)

Still, Rothschild remains characteristically elusive when sought out for comment. His assistant in London will not even divulge what continent he is on (“I cannot disclose,” she whispers over the phone). This might have something to do with the $3 billion merger he's just struck for his finance company, Vallar, with a seriously wealthy Indonesian family—an accord described in the financial press as one of the most complex of the past year.

After a deal like that, it would seem Rothschild is due for a vacation—perhaps in Rio? Time to check the papers.

The British-born banker Nat Rothschild has put his New York City bachelor pad on the market for $17.5 million, fifteen years after he bought it.

Rothschild had the four-storey townhouse at 8 St Luke’s Place in the West Village redesigned by the architect David Chipperfield.

Source: Douglas Elliman

The New York Observer reported that he paid $5.575 million for the 1852 landmarked residence in 2000 and spend another £350,000 on renovations – though he was initially reluctant to include a kitchen, if an interview Chipperfield gave to Men’s Vogue is to be believed.

Source: Douglas Elliman

In the end, Chipperfield convinced Rothschild to convert the basement into a “lab-like caterer’s kitchen and wine cellar to rival any restaurant’s”, despite the fact that Rothschild doesn’t drink.

Douglas Elliman

Rothschild was born in England and educated at Eton and Oxford, where he was a member of the Bullingdon Club at the same time as George Osborne. He married Annabelle Neilson, model and muse of the late Alexander McQueen and lived in New York for a time. After the marriage disintegrated he moved to Switzerland.

He is the chairman of JNR Limited, an investment consultant focussed on emerging markets and commodities. In 2011 the Sunday Times estimated his worth at $1.6 billion.
