This was suspected at the time by by U.S. Secretary of Treasury Henry Morgenthau, who began investigating this collaboration. He found the Swiss were not alone. His archives reveal that both British and American bankers continued to do business with Hitler, even as Germany was invading Europe and bombing London. This investigative film shows in detail the roles played by the Anglo-German banking clique. Key members of the Bank of England together with their German counterparts established the BIS, the Bank for International Settlement, which laundered the plundered gold of Europe. On its board were key Nazis such as Walther Funk and Hjalamar Schact The president of BIS was an American, Thomas McKittrick, who readily socialized with leading Nazis. Not only the BIS, but other allied banks worked hand in hand with the Nazis. One of the biggest American banks kept a branch open in Occupied Paris and, with full knowledge of the managers in the U.S., froze the accounts of French Jews. Deprived of money to escape France, many ended up in death camps. When Pres. Roosevelt died in April 1945, Morganthau lost his protector and his crusade against the banks came to an end. He was further weakened when men in his department were accused of being Communists during the McCarthy era. This incredible story contains interviews with surviving members of banking families and Morganthaus investigative team as well as newly found archive material. 001355659 521__ $$aFor College; Adult audiences. 001355659 530__ $$aPreviously released as DVD. 001355659 546__ $$aThis edition in English. 001355659 60010 $$aMorgenthau, Henry,$$d1891-1967. 001355659 61020 $$aBank for International Settlements$$xHistory. 001355659 650_0 $$aEconomics. 001355659 655_7 $$aDocumentary films.$$2lcgft 001355659 7001_ $$aElston, Paul. 001355659 85640 $$uhttp://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?BUSV;1630950 001355659 901__ $$aASP1630950/busv$$bVaAlASP$$c18582$$tbiblio 001355659 905__ $$uadmin 001355659 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1355659$$pGLOBAL_SET 001355659 944__ $$a1784516 001355659 945__ $$aThe Whole World 001355659 980__ $$aSTREAMING 001355659 980__ $$aBIB 001355659 982__ $$aStreaming Video 001355659 983__ $$aOnline
