In the last years of the twentieth century, the many shortcomings of the postwar Dutch Holocaust restitution became a major issue in the Dutch public debate. The internationally publicized failures of the Swiss banks regarding dormant bank accounts from the war period prompted investigations elsewhere as well, including in the Netherlands. A further stimulus came when many index cards of the Dutch looting bank LIRO, listing the stolen possessions of individual Jews, were found abandoned in an Amsterdam attic.
