Founded in the 1930s, the Bank for International Settlements has survived wars and the collapse of entire political systems. In 1945 the board was dominated by Nazis who would stand trial for war crimes. The BIS pioneered the European Union and the Euro. In Italy and Greece, elected politicians have been replaced by technocrats approved by the BIS.
