Nathaniel Rothschild, a scion of the Rothschild banking dynasty and part owner of family-controlled Bumi Plc, has asked for a “radical cleaning up” of corporate governance at the mining group, following a sharp fall in its share price.
Rothschild, who owns 11% of London-listed Bumi, which in turn owns around 30% of Jakarta-based PT Bumi Resources, shares ownership of the company with the Indonesian Bakrie family.
