Biography[]
In 1910, Vanderlip met with fellow Templars Paul Warburg, Charles Norton, Benjamin Strong, Jr., Henry Pomeroy Davison, and Nelson W. Aldrich on Jekyll Island. There, they designed the "Plan", a plot to take control of the capitalist market.[1] The first part consisted of creating the Federal Reserve System, which was accomplished in 1913.[2] The next comprised the founding of Abstergo Industries, a front for the Templar Order that would be established in 1937.[3]
