description: "Alfred Léonard Loewenstein was a Belgian financier. At his peak in the 1920s, Loewenstein was worth around £12 million in the currency of the time, making him the third-richest person in the world at the time. His wealth came from investments in electric power and artificial silk businesses when those industries were in their infancy. Loewenstein is remembered today for his mysterious disappearance and death in 1928."
