"Between 1938 and 1944, financial directorates played a crucial role in the state-controlled campaign to systematically seize the assets of Hungarian Jews. The most relevant part of the collection is the Records of the Presidential Department No I., 1896-1944 (VI.101.c.), which is divided into three major sections (A-C): General Records, Declarations on the assets of citizens considered Jewish, 1944 and Inventories of Jewish property, 1944. Pre-1944 files are of fragmented nature. However, the 1944 records contain detailed information on the state sequestration and inventory of Jewish property.\r\nFollowing the Nazi occupation of Hungary, Prime Minister’s Decree no. 1600/1944 issued in early April on declaration and blocking of Jewish-owned property stipulated that all those defined as Jewish had to deposit their jewellery, bonds and other valuables in a bank belonging to the Centre of Financial Institutions. Besides, they had to report their valuables at the local Financial Directorates. Boxes 11-92 hold a massive collection of special value of these declarations, in the alphabetical order of localities and owners, respectively.\r\nRecords of specialized departments no. II-VII. (Consumption tax, Financial directorates, Turnover tax, Licensing, Fees, Taxation and Land Release) also contain plenty of information on implementation of the decrees terminating the official permits of Jewish businesses for the sales and purchase of goods and materials monopolized by the state, such as petrol, alcohol, tobacco, sugar, etc., between 1940 and 1944, Supervision and termination of the sales permits for alcohol, tobacco and other state monopolies, petty offences and Various matters concerning land policy and the matters of Jewish landholdings.
