He became a supporter of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party, and served in Hitler's government as President of the Reichsbank and Minister of Economics. As such, Schacht helped implement Hitler's policies of redevelopment, reindustrialization, and rearmament. He was forced out of the government by disagreements with Hitler and other prominent Nazis in December 1937, and had no role during World War II.
