German term

arisiertes Vermögen

German to English Law/Patents Law (general) estates, wills
Bezüglich der VEAV-Akten ... gilt der Personenbezug im Sinne von ........... den Einbringern in diesem Verfahren bzw. dem namentlich genannten Inhaber des arisierten Vermögens.

This is an excerpt from a letter the Municipal archive in Wien sent to a person asking to view certain records. I looked up the term arisieren and know what it means, I just cannot figuere out how to translate it, as there is really no english verb for it! Help!

German term (edited): arisierten Vermögen

seized property/fortune/asset

My DE-EN dict suggests "Aryanize," but I wouldn't use that without an explanation.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Francis Lee (X) : In this case, it's likely that the readership will understand "aryanize"; and in any case, this is from an archived letter, so there's no scope for explanation
