In the years that followed, the supervisory board approved the strategic orientation of Hitler\'s four-year plan for war preparation and the financing of Nazi organizations. Many members were accused in the Nuremberg I.G. Farben trial (case 6) of shared responsibility for the enslavement of concentration camp prisoners.
