Hjalmar Schacht was Hitler’s banker between the years 1933 and 1939. He was also the Reichsminister of Economics between 1934 and 1937, playing a central role in financing the Third Reich’s rearmament programme in the build up to war. Schacht also helped set up the Bank of International Settlements (the BIS) in 1930. So why did Hitler hire him? And why did Hitler fire him? Let’s find out.

ABOUT TIK 📝
History isn’t as boring as some people think, and my goal is to get people talking about it. I also want to dispel the myths and distortions that ruin our perception of the past by asking a simple question - “But is this really the case?”. I have a 2:1 Degree in History and a passion for early 20th Century conflicts (mainly WW2). I’m therefore approaching this like I would an academic essay. Lots of sources, quotes, references and so on. Only the truth will do.
This video is discussing events or concepts that are academic, educational and historical in nature. This video is for informational purposes and was created so we may better understand the past and learn from the mistakes others have made.
