The team of the International Commission for Holocaust Era Insurance Claims is supported by the Czech Government and gathers information concerning particular insurance contracts of victims of the Holocaust and has been working in the Archives of the Czech Republic ever since October 2000. The findings should then be made public on the Internet website: http://www.icheic.org."--[Introduction], http://old.hrad.cz/president/Havel/holocaust/index_uk.html.

- "[This list] was retrieved from both Gestapo and the Central Association for Private Insurance in the Protectorate documents, which were sent to insurance companies during the period 1940-1944. The insurance companies were obligated to report back to the Property Office, or the Gestapo, concerning insurance policies of people who were on the list. In the case of life insurance, policies were confiscated and their cash value was transferred to occupation authorities. According to our findings the list is not complete. We know that quite a large group of people [are] missing - mainly those whose property was confiscated by the Office for Jewish Immigration. This [...] list is one of the results of the group working on Holocaust-era insurance, which has been occupied with this task since May 1998"--Cover sheet.
