== Confiscation of Jewish property ==
At
<nowiki> </nowiki>Nuremberg, Funk was accused by Allied prosecutors of having been 
closely involved in the State confiscation and disposal of the property 
of German Jews
<nowiki> </nowiki>from this time. He boasted that by 1938, the German state had 
confiscated Jewish property worth two million marks, using decrees from 
Hitler and other top Nazis to force German Jews to leave their property 
and assets to the State if they emigrated. They were forced by Göring to
<nowiki> </nowiki>pay for the damage caused by the Nazis to their own property on ''Kristallnacht'', and increasingly deprived of their personal wealth and assets as the Second World War approached.
