Why Is Stolen Money Hidden In Swiss Banks? by toluxa1(m): 9:24am On Jan 17, 2013 |
I sit in the living room watching BBC News and a piece of news on the greek tax evasion scandal is on. It was discovered that about 2000 greeks (rich) have money in swiss accounts. I have always wondered, What is it about SWISS ACCOUNTS? What makes it so easy to hide stolen money in swiss banks? Is there something about there banking policies. Countless corrupt officials (even in Nigeria) have been caught with large sums of money in swiss banks (e.g Abacha, Ibori, etc). So what's so special about Swiss banks? |

They offer absolute secrecy which makes them ideal from criminals it's also a neutral country in all armed conflicts so people feel safer having money there because they'll never have a problem using it anywhere in the world because of politics and they also offered some of the best tax incentives in the world though idk if it's the same since they're trying to clean up their image 2 Likes |

But are they not aware that majority of the huge sums people deposit with them are stolen funds? They support this or they just don't care? 1 Like |

Switzerland and sweden are non-allied members in europe.I think with that they are somehow insulated from laws and regulations imposed on EU members states.Anyways,dubai and china seem to be the hottest spots for money laundering. 1 Like |

complimentary benefit of SECRECY LEGISLATION. It has enacted laws establishing strict corporate and banking confidentiality. If this confidentiality is breached, there are serious consequences for the offending party. In this case, the looters such as OBJ,TINUBU,JONATHAN, PATIENCE, SILVA, IBORI and co thieves have clearly avoided government interference and moreover those offshore banks operate with a lower cost base and can provide higher interest rates than the legal rate in home country due to lower overheads. |

That was then. There is loot all over now, Dubai, Hong Kong, USA, Belize, etc! If they look well, they will also find such money in some Nigerian banks....Some Africans also store their loots (in dollars and pounds) inside vaults specially built in their houses. |

You cannot take any money to heaven. Surrender your life to the Lord Jesus Christ today. Go to a Bible believing church around you today for more details. 8 Likes |

Along with the countries like the cayman islands, bermuda nad others. Switzerland is a massive secretive, highly skilled tax shelter. And avenue for staching of stolen money. Infact that is one of the major means of revenue of the swiss, that's why they are not in the e.u!! Guys like mitt romney are regular customers. |

maximum security measures sleek policies garnished with low taxes they dont go folding up tommorow. peace of mind of the depositor unbounded by crazy foreign laws. but most of all, this is their specialization. and one of their money making avenues. they are not like nigeria where we have oil, yet cant refine same in our confines. |
Re: Why Is Stolen Money Hidden In Swiss Banks? by Nobody: 2:05pm On Jan 17, 2013 |
As a banking student, I have learnt that Swiss banks are immune from external pressure. Their duty of secrecy as a banking duty is very strong. @ OP, when next u steal money, run to Switzerland, its safe. Not ICJ can order its release unless the bank wants to. Gbabe |
