Abstract

Created in 1912, the Financial Affairs Section is originally a mere division of the Public Prosecutor Office of the former Seine Department. In the early 1930s, it turned into a firmly established organization, provided with its own assistant prosecutors, investigating judges, judicial policemen and experts. All of them specialized in financial matters. The current article looks into this over 100 years old organization which plays an important role in the French financial and judicial history. In this respect, it highlights three major points: first the origin of the creation of this Section within the Seine Public Prosecutor Office, then the development of its activities during the interwar period, and finally how its functioning has been called into question in 1934, particularly its link with the police financial services. Classification JEL: N23, N24, K20, K29, K42.
