Bernard Kelly obituary
Idiosyncratic banker who in the 1960s helped to establish the City as the centre of the eurobond and eurodollar markets
...Bernard Noel Terence Kelly was born in Brussels in 1930, the elder son of the Comtesse Renée Marie Noële Ghislaine de Vaux and Sir David Kelly, an Irish-born British diplomat who talked the Swiss government into staying neutral in the Second World War. During the conflict Bernard remained at Downside, the Catholic boarding school in Somerset. When the Comtesse sent him a box of oranges, he had to share nearly all of them with the other children. His brother Laurence became a writer and brought the Soviet dissident Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn to Britain...
...Kelly considered himself a “debs’ delight”, and met Mirabel Magdalene Fitzalan Howard (later Lady Mirabel) on the London party circuit. Her aristocratic family were not taken with him at first, considering him not much of a catch. Nevertheless, they married in 1952, and had seven sons and a daughter. Dominic is an entrepreneur; Anthony is an artist; Crispin is a property developer and potter; David is a retired solicitor; Benedict is a venture capitalist; Anne-Louise is a homemaker; Sebastian and Justin are entrepreneurs.
Kelly was a Francophile, taught his family French, and his favourite holidays were in Provence or Île de Ré, near Rouen in Normandy.
Mirabel predeceased him in 2008. In later years Kelly mentored many younger financiers, among them the chairman of Campbell Lutyens, a Mayfair investment boutique, and of Nexus, which managed a portfolio of healthcare properties.
He belonged to the Athenaeum and Brooks’s in London along with the United Arts and the Kildare Street and University clubs in Dublin. He was a long-term property investor and never lost his idiosyncratic approach to banking.
Bernard Kelly, banker, was born on April 23, 1930. He died of complications from Parkinson’s disease on May 16, 2022, aged 92
