Left-wing billionaire financier George Soros recently accused Angela Merkel of bringing 'chaos' to Europe through her open-door immigration policy.

But it’s emerged through leaked documents that his think-tank Open Society Foundations (OSF) sees Europe’s refugee crisis as an opportunity - a chance to influence immigration policies worldwide and collaborate with other wealthy donors.

In a memo called ‘Migration Governance and Enforcement Portfolio Review’, OSF states that the immigration crisis in Europe is the ‘new normal’.

It has ‘created space to reconsider the governance of migration and the international refugee regime’.

It presents, the Foundation argues, ‘new opportunities for reforming migration governance at the global level, whether through the existing multi-lateral system, or by bringing together a range of actors to think more innovatively’.

The Foundation says that its ‘investment in global work’ means that it has the ‘right partners’ and is in a position to ‘help others navigate this space’.

The memo adds that 'the refugee crisis is opening new opportunities... for coordination and collaboration' with other rich organisations.

It was only recently that Soros, who ‘broke the Bank of England’ in 1992, said that the German Chancellor’s decision to 'open her country's doors wide to refugees' was 'not properly thought out'.

The OSF claims on its website that it works ‘to build vibrant and tolerant societies whose governments are accountable and open to the participation of all people’

Soros, 85, said a 'lack of adequate controls sparked panic across the continent' and that the European migration crisis and Brexit debate then 'fed on each other'.

He said: 'German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s decision to open her country’s doors wide to refugees was an inspiring gesture, but it was not properly thought out, because it ignored the pull factor.

'A sudden influx of asylum-seekers disrupted people in their everyday lives across the EU.

'The lack of adequate controls, moreover, created panic, affecting everyone: the local population, the authorities in charge of public safety, and the refugees themselves.'

He said the Leave campaign in Britain exploited the deteriorating refugee situation to stoke fears of 'uncontrolled immigration' from other EU member states.

Soros - one of the wealthiest men in the world - famously 'broke the Bank of England' after his bets against the pound were instrumental in ejecting it from the Exchange Rate Mechanism.

The OSF claims on its website that it works ‘to build vibrant and tolerant societies whose governments are accountable and open to the participation of all people’.

It says: ‘We seek to strengthen the rule of law; respect for human rights, minorities, and a diversity of opinions; democratically elected governments; and a civil society that helps keep government power in check.

‘We help to shape public policies that assure greater fairness in political, legal, and economic systems and safeguard fundamental rights.’

MailOnline has contacted the OSF for a comment.

WHO IS GEORGE SOROS?

Soros rose to fame and fortune two decades ago on a now-historic trade, in which he took on the Bank of England and shrewdly wagered on a devaluation of the British pound.

This led to his moniker - The Man Who Broke the Bank of England.

The move made him $1billion.

He was born in Budapest, studied at the London School of Economics and holds dual Hungarian-American citizenship.

After selling seaside souvenirs he managed to get a foot on the financial ladder with a job at Singer & Friedlander in London in 1954, before settling in the US.

He went on to become one of the richest people in the world through fund management.

He's worth around $24.9billion.
