An independent commission matching Swiss bank accounts against the names of Holocaust victims said it was checking millions of more names but still expected to issue a final report by September. The commission, headed by former U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker, said in a statement last Friday it had received 2.5 million more names of victims from Yad Vashem, Israel’s Holocaust memorial, to supplement its own list of more than 700,000 names.
