Tax, security and privacy. You could put documents admitting your involvement in 9/11 in one of their strong boxes, and no-one but you would ever know.

Swedish banks have a long established history of banking secrecy. This means that they won't hand over information about a client and their assets to public authorities, i.e. the police)

Its their money, they can do whatever they want with it.

To falsely claim income and evade the taxman.

6 RepliesTaxing the rich (at a higher percentage than a typical U.S. citizen) isn't a good way to go about solving income inequality. If we just raised the minimum wage, I would think that we wouldn't have to worry about who has more money. Correct me, if I'm wrong.

Because they can be sure that it's there when they need it.

51 RepliesI don't know, why do socialists asses keep trying to make the rich pay more and more when they already do so? You are aware that most of the tax revenue the Fed gets comes from rich people right? Maybe if we didn't have people who were so Hell bent on taking away more of their money, they wouldn't be paranoid about losing it.

1 ReplyI think because the money can't be touched by the US government. If they go to jail or have to pay a find of sort, they still have money in their swiss account.

Cause it can't be traced. Duhhhh

They're not in EU is my guess.

Practically no taxes, and waaay higher interest rates for account growth.
-
Because the US sucks with its taxes.
