Product Detail

Name:	Closing the Books: Jewish Insurance Claims from the Holocaust
Product Code:	9781929631834
Description:	By Charles Weiss
Product Detail:	Weiss reviews and analyzes all the recent history and efforts to provide reparations to Holocaust victims and their heirs. This book is very complete; from the fight with Swiss banks hoarding millions of dollars that belonged to Jews killed during the Holocaust, to reparations from German corporations and banks that had profited from slave and forced laborers, to the millions of dollars in insurance policies left unredeemed because the policyholders and beneficiaries simply disappeared. This led to the creation of the International Commission on Holocaust Era Insurance Claims. The ICHEIC, as it is known, would eventually gather seventy insurance companies around the world to help settle all of these unpaid claims.
