This Record Group contains some documentation on German-Swiss financial transactions, 1933-1945. Pertinent indexes to Records of the German Foreign Ministry are available upon request. Additional material may be included in records of the Reich Ministry of Economics (described in NARA German Guide 1). Records of the Deutsches Auslands Institute, Stuttgart, were identified by American officials in the postwar period as a potential source of information on German external assets. Records of this agency are included in the NARA collection and described in NARA German Guides 16 and 21. Also of potential interest are records of the German Plenipotentiary General for the Serbian Economy, described in NARA Guide 89, and pertaining exclusively to the exploitation of Jewish-owned assets in occupied Serbia. A complete search of our 70,000-roll microfilm collection would possibly yield more material pertinent to German external assets. It should be noted that most all of the NARA Captured German Records Collection consists of microfilm copies of original records that were returned to Germany and are in the custody of the German Bundesarchiv.
Researchers should consult Microfilm Resources for Research: A Comprehensive Catalog (Washington, DC, National Archives and Records Administration, 1996) for listings of microfilm copies of captured German records. Researchers should also consult Robert Wolfe, ed., Captured German and Related Records: A National Archives Conference. (National Archives Conferences Volume 3, published by Athens, Ohio: Ohio University Press, 1974).
This volume contains sections on The Role of the United States Army in the Use of Captured German Records; The Historical and Legal Use of Captured German and Related Records by the United States Armed Forces; The Role of the Department of State in the Use of Captured German Records; Some Specialized Captured Records and Their Uses; and The Role of the National Archives in the Use of Captured German and Related Records.
