When Venetian merchants needed usurer capital to finance their business ventures, Jews flocked to Venice in large numbers. Shylock was one of them and thus, is a foreigner and not a citizen of Venice. He being a money-lender was treated as an outcast in the Christian dominated Venice. Inspite of that, Shylock was a successful entrepreneur who handled his business straightforward and charged high interest. Being the greedy person he is, he continued to stay in Venice for the momentary benefits.
