Kaye was born in Russia, the son of wheat merchant Zelman Kagarlisky (1877/8–1926; his name was also spelled 'Zalman Kagarlitzky') and his wife Chassia Annie (1885/6–1943), a botanist. The family came to England when he was young, settling in London. Emmanuel was educated at Richmond Hill School, leaving to work for a small engineering firm at the age of 15. In 1934 his mother changed the family name to 'Kaye'. Kaye was a member of the CBI council from 1976 to 1989, and its financial policy committee from 1985 to 1992. Once a strong supporter of the Conservative party, he was believed to be a donor to Tony Blair's Labour Leader's Office Fund before the 1997 General Election. He was reportedly persuaded to contribute by Lord Levy. Kaye was associated with the Labour Friends of Israel. Among major beneficiaries of his philanthropy was Emmanuel College, Cambridge, which made him an Honorary Member in 1994. He was Vice-Chairman (1981-5) and Chairman (1985–99) of the Thrombosis Research Trust. In 1946, Kaye married Elizabeth, daughter of Mark Cutler; they had a son and two daughters. He was appointed C.B.E. in 1967, and Knight Bachelor in 1974. (en)
