If you mean that others would simply fill the power vacuum and become the new banksters, maybe. But if the people had already risen up to dethrone the previous banksters then it would be a very dangerous thing to attempt to retake that throne anytime soon.

This is purely a mental exercise
Just a hypothetical scenario I've been contemplating.
It seems like the biggest threat facing the world today isn't terrorism, it's the economic warfare being waged by bankers. In antiquity people made conquest with swords and fire for tribal superiority, in modern history nations waged war with machines for nationalistic ideals, and now while war still exists, it is mostly just a kind of leverage used in a bigger economic conquest where a few families who have no national loyalties are consolidating all the resources and power for themselves with the intent to exterminate most of humanity in order to insure their own genetic line has the power/resources to rule until such a time as technology allows them to become immortal.
The planet has limited resources, selfish genes seek their own replication and the elimination of rival genes. Technology requires those limited resources to progress. It's a logical conclusion that they would want to reduce the number of consumers of those resources so that they have enough resources over a long enough period of time to achieve that primary goal of perpetuating their genetic line indefinitely.
