Offshore Account Update, UBS / HSBC

Posted on August 13, 2011 |

European banks are ready to pay billions to the United States, as well as disclose U.S. clients’ names to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Department of Justice (DOJ). Switzerland has been known as one of the largest tax havens in the world and wishes to continue its long-practiced tradition of tax secrecy and has allegedly agreed to divulge information requested by U.S. agencies, including U.S. taxpayer information.

The banks included are allegedly : Basler Kantonalbank, Wegelin & Co., Zuercher Kantonalbank, Julius Baer, Bank Leumi , Bank Hapoalim, Mizrahi-Tefahot Bank, Credit Suisse, HSBC and Liechtensteinische Landesbank AG.
