How to open and close a Swiss bank account, plus information on confidentiality and security deposits.The Swiss banking system
A prosperous and economically advanced nation, Switzerland's gross domestic product (GDP) is among the world's largest per capita. There are nearly 400 banks in Switzerland, ranging from UBS and Credit Suisse to smaller banks serving single communities or selective clients. Considered the world's largest offshore financial centre, the Swiss banking sector is known for its privacy, stability and protection of customer information and assets. The Federal Banking Commission (FBC) regulates these banks.
Opening a Swiss account
Opening an account can be difficult or impossible for non-residents of Switzerland. Foreigners officially residing in Switzerland, however, can open bank accounts easily. Banks require personal information (such as name, address, date of birth, profession and contact information), identification, a passport-sized photograph, and financial documents which vary depending on the client’s profession. The origin of the funds will also be checked.
US citizens are required to sign a document agreeing to notify the IRS of all transfers over a certain amount. As Swiss bank accounts for US citizens require additional administrative work, many banks prefer to open these accounts only when large sums of money are involved.
