Scope and content
History of the Inventor: The "registration and treatment of hostile property" in the occupied Netherlands was regulated in the course of the establishment of a German civil administration. The Commissioner General for Finance and Economy was responsible for this. Dr. Schröder, a member of the Council of Appeal, was initially the head of the Enemy Assets Division, which was initially designated in the General Department and expanded into its own department on 1 Nov. 1941. Fine property management included the movable and immovable property of natural and legal persons of the states involved in the war against Germany. The Commissioner General decided on the appointment of appropriate administrators. Initially, the assets of Jews who had fled abroad were also placed under administration, but these asset administrations were converted into trusteeships from March 1941. The liquidation of the companies was carried out in accordance with the Ordinance of 12 March 1941 on the Treatment of Companies Subject to Notification (Economic Judgment Ordinance) by the Auditing Office of the Commissioner General. Inventory description: Inventory history The files of the Enemy Assets Department of the General Commissioner for Finance and Economics, including a few volumes of the provenance of fiduciary work, did not reach the Federal Archives until 1984 from the Deutsche Revisions- und Treuhand AG in Frankfurt/M. The files of the Enemy Assets Department of the General Commissioner for Finance and Economics, including a few volumes of the provenance of fiduciary work, were only archived in the Federal Archives in 1984. The files were filmed in the Federal Archives in 2001 and the original files were handed over to the Nederlands Instituut voor Oorlogsdocumentatie Amsterdam. Archival evaluation and processing The order of the files in the Findbuch follows the registration numbers assigned consecutively in the General Commissioner's registry according to the initial letter of the main keyword. Characterisation of the content: The majority of the records are individual files on the management of "enemy" assets, arranged alphabetically according to the names of the companies. In addition to the reports requested by the administrators, the volumes also contain audit reports of Deutsche Revisions- und Treuhand AG, The Hague Branch, as well as correspondence on the decisions of the Commissioner General. There are also general volumes on the treatment of enemy property, including the appointment of administrators, and documents on the treatment of Jewish property.
