Enemy Property Claims Assessment Panel (EPCAP)

One of several such initiatives in recent years, this site from the UK government hosts a database of some 30,000 records of bank accounts and other property held in the UK by residents of countries classed as "belligerent enemies" (e.g., Germany) and "technical enemies" (Nazi-occupied countries) that were confiscated by the British government during the war. Individuals who were victims of persecution in these countries or their heirs are now entitled to claim their property or compensation. The database may be searched initially by country and then by name and/or address. Returns include name and address, types of property seized, and the value of the property. The site also includes the full text of several reports that "give the complete background of wartime and postwar policy and procedures for settlement." While obviously aimed at victims of Nazi (and satellite state) persecution, this site may also prove useful to historians of the era.
