At the age of sixteen he entered the banking-house of Samuel Bleichröder—his mother's brother-in-law—, and twenty years later became a partner; from 1893, when his cousin Gerson von Bleichröder died, he was the senior partner of the house. He was also president of the directors of the Berliner Börse, and subsequently presided over a standing committee of that institution.
