Business History, 2020, vol. 62, issue 3, 410-420

Abstract: This paper analyzes the National Socialist policy towards insurance companies. The puropse of this paper is to examine the impact of Nazi economic policies on the scope and the scale of the world biggest reinsurance company Munich Re. Contrary to prior assumptions, the substantial foreign business of Munich Re was not seriously affected by the Nazi policy of autarchy and the strict regulation of currency transfers.
