Opening a Swiss bank account is a sophisticated procedure.

The bank has to know your identitiy in order to avoid that terrorist, criminals and politically exposed persons can put at risk the reputation of the bank. Documentary evidence is absolutely needed for your identity, economic background and source of funds.

The account opening procedure is more complicated in Switzerland than in your home country. Switzerland has the strictest and most severe anti-money laundering law in the world. This is the price Switzerland has to pay for the preservation of the Swiss bank secrecy.

Your information will remain strictly confidential even in case your account opening request is rejected.
