Hans-Joachim Caesar
Hans-Joachim Caesar (17 May 1905 – after 1980) was a German lawyer and banking official, working for the German Reichsbank from 1931 until the end of World War II. He was director of Germany's Reichsbank during World War II and basically served as "second-in-line" to Vice President Emil Puhl. From 1940 to 1944 Caesar served as German Banking Administrator / Comptroller ( "Bankenkommissar" ) for France in Paris.
== Life ==
Born in Neisse, Silesia, Prussia, Germany, Caesar studied law in Marburg, Münster and Kiel, and started to work for Reichsbank in Berlin in December, 1931, shortly before the end of the Weimar Republic. At January 1, 1935, he was appointed "Reichsbankrat" (Reichsbank Councillor), a few years later he became a member of the directorate. As a Reichbank Director he was for example responsible for the administration of U.S. assets and accounts within the territory and zone of control of the Reich. In this role, some authors see Caesar as second-in-line to "de facto" head of the Reichsbank and official Vice President Emil Puhl,〔Chapter 2: The Chase Nazi Account: in: Charles Higham, 1983, Trading with the enemy - An exposé of the Nazi-American money plot, 1933-1949: Delacorte Press, ISBN 978-0440090649〕 who managed business operations of Reichsbank on behalf of the nominal head, the President of Reichsbank and Minister of Economy of the Reich Walther Funk.
From 1940 until 1944 Caesar was German Bank Comptroller / Administrator in France, located in Paris. In this role Caesar was supervising the Paris branches of Allied banks such as Barclays〔Antony Barnett: Holocaust shame of Barclays - The bank's Paris branch offered names of Jewish staff to its Nazi masters: (The Observer, Sunday, March 28th, 1999 )〕 and Chase Manhattan Bank.〔〔(Plunder by Proxy ), in: Gregg J. Rickman, 2006, Conquest and Redemption - A history of Jewish assets from the Holocaust: Transaction Publishers, ISBN 0-7658-0346-1, p. 44〕 Caesar was also responsible for "enemy banks" in German occupied British territory on the Channel Islands. In this role he visited Jersey in January, 1941.〔Paul Sanders: The British Channel Islands under German Occupation, 1940-1945: Gazelle Book Services, 2005, ISBN 978-0953885831, p. 28〕〔John Nettles: Jewels and Jackboots: Hitler's British Isles, the German Occupation of the British Channel Islands 1940-1945: Channel Island Publishing; Auflage: 1st Limited edition (24. Oktober 2012): ISBN 978-1905095384〕 Caesars role is controversial, some authors stress his role in the theft and exploitation of Jewish property as a close aide of Puhl and Funk, others point out that he reportedly refused offers of over-eager French bank officials to blackmail Jewish colleagues or assist with the confiscation of Jewish property. However, unlike Funk, who was sentenced to life at the First Nuremberg Trial in 1946, and Puhl, who was sentenced to five years jail at the so-called "Wilhelmstrasse"-Trial, there apparently were no legal proceedings against Caesar.
After 1945 Caesar lived in Cologne and was board member of several German banks as well as representative of Foreign, for example Swiss, banks in Germany. He died in Cologne (West Germany) after 1980.
