Apologies for my curiosity. But which countries ban (or are about to ban) large cash purchases? Very much appreciated if you have references or pointers.

- gst 15y agoItaly has already been mentioned in the replies. Sweden is another one. Actually they are currently discussing/planing to completely ban cash transactions: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-10538032 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-10538032
