9. Cowell, Alan. "Swiss used Nazi victims' money for war payments, files reveal". New York Times(October 24, 1996): A1, A10. Note: Funds from unclaimed Holocaust victims' accounts were used to compensate Swiss businesses for expropriated assets in Hungary and Poland after the postwar Communist takeover, according to this article. This new finding provides additional evidence that Switzerland drew financial benefit from the Holocaust. Filed in Library at C1. (Poland sold gold in the last month - whose gold was it?) 88. Steinberg, Jonathan. The Deutsche Bank and its gold transactions during the Second World War. Munich: Oscar Beck, 1998. Note: The Historical Commission to Examine the History of Deutsche Bank in the Period of National Socialism was appointed by the Deutsche Bank in December 1997 because the Bank decided that it had to take up the issues which the debate on gold had aroused. The bank had already established both an historical archive and an institute for study of the history of the bank. A history of the bank had been published, but the availability of new Soviet archival sources made another closer study of the gold dealings of the largest German commerical bank under conditions of total war advisable. Historians appointed included Avraham Barkai, Gerald D. Feldman, Lothar Gail, Harold James, and Jonathan Steinberg, the principal author of the report. Their investigation showed that the Bank did trade in victim gold during WWII. In his conclusion, Steinberg concluding that their guilt began in 1933 when they tolerated the outrages which ruined their colleagues noted that the Deutsche Bank directors "profited from the disappearance of Jewish colleagues and rivals and went on pretending that business could go as usual".
