Description
Summary:This translation of Gerald Feldman's posthumously-published contribution to the jointly authored Österreichische Banken und Sparkassen im Nationalsozialismus und in der Nachkriegszeit (2006, with Oliver Rathkolb, Theodor Venus, and Ulrike Zimmerl) investigates Austrian bankers’ Nazi-era persecution and dispossession of Jews; facilitation of the Anschluss in 1938; and contribution to Nazi empire-building in Southeast Europe (p. 1). The Creditanstalt-Wiener Bankverein (CA) and the Länderbank Wien (itself the product of the merger of Mercurbank and the French-owned Banque des Pays de l'Europe Centrale, BPEC) figure in the present volume., Feldman's work challenges the myth that Creditanstalt-Wiener and Länderbank Wien were the victims of Nazi imperial ambitions in Austria or Southeast Europe.
