Jagat Seth was a wealthy merchant, banker and money lender family from Murshidabad in Bengal^[2] during the time of the Nawabs of Bengal.^[3]^[4]

Though not at the same scale, but the influence exercised by this family in the finances of the Mughal Empire during the 17th and 18th century would be akin to that exercised by the Rothschild family in Europe.^[5]
