Credit Suisse bank "please take your money to another bank" | |
Ostria1  User ID: 48107682  Greece10/09/2013 09:17 AM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Ok this is known from September 25 but it didnt hit the mass media till today in Greece at least. Credit Suisse decided to close all bank accounts of non-swiss people, with under 1 million swiss franks. Also it decided to stop accepting clients from some countries entirely, including Congo, Angola, Uzbekistan, Belarus and Turkmenistan. What they say they want to do, is to focus on "rich and super-rich clients" with balances of at least one million Swiss francs (800,000 euros, $1.1 million). Small acounts from customers from other countries like Denmark and Israel will be affected too. The accounts involved would be closed by the end of the year, affecting clients in nearly 50 countries [link to www.france24.com] [link to www.marketwatch.com] It just makes you  Ostria |

| Ostria1 (OP) User ID: 48107682 Greece10/09/2013 09:23 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | hehe but it freaked out many people with less that the money requested. And i understand that all the pressure swiss banks had the last years to have clean accounts, but i havent heard before a bank to decide to deny money from depositors. Ostria |
| Ostria1 (OP) User ID: 48173133 Greece10/10/2013 08:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | World likely to have 11 trillionaires within two generations: Credit Suisse the global wealth pyramid It’s pretty disconcerting to see over two-thirds of the world’s adults have wealth of less than $10,000, while the wealthiest 0.7% hold 41% of the world’s wealth. but “Two generations ahead, future extrapolation of current wealth growth rates yields almost a billion millionaires, equivalent to 20% of the total adult population. If this scenario unfolds, then billionaires will be commonplace, and there is likely to be a few trillionaires too – eleven according to our best estimate.” [link to blogs.marketwatch.com] Ostria |

Quoting: American Zombie This shows that there is something brewing and suiss bank which is the most secure so far takes measures to avoid the traps. my 2 cents of course "About a hundred Swiss banks will avoid prosecution by divulging the names of US clients who have allegedly avoided tax by using secret accounts. The banks could face fines of up to 50 percent of the asset value if they provide full disclosure." [link to rt.com] I think there may be a typo in the qoute, but you get the picture |
