Zusammenfassung

Drawing on Swiss trading companies in South and Southeast Asia, this article provides insights into the way private companies were influenced by the measures of economic warfare during World War I. The first part describes Great Britainâ s war economy measures (I), the second part the effect they had on the trading of goods and on the organisation of the business of Swiss trading companies (II). The article then sets out how the question of the companiesâ national affiliation became more and more significant due to the increasingly restrictive nature of the decrees formulated by the warring parties (III). The fourth section deals with the honorary consulates founded during the course of the First World War which led to closer ties between Swiss trading companies and the Swiss state (IV). The final section discusses the effects of the war on the business activities and self-perception of Swiss trading companies after 1918 (V).
