The Swiss Post Bank allows me to withdraw from ATM all over the world without any fees. But I have to have an overall minimal balance of 25K USD or I have to pay a monthly fee of 12 USD. I can actually have an infinite number of different accounts with different currencies. But these conditions are only available for Swiss citizens. For foreigner additional fees apply per account (5-10 USD). And yeah, Americans have a hard time getting an account here. Actually a friend told me, that you even have a hard time keeping your Swiss accounts if you move as a Swiss citizen to the United States.
- pseingatl 12y agoJulian Assange and Wikileaks opened an account with the Swiss Post Bank. Under US pressure, they shut down these accounts and said that in the future they would allow Swiss citizens or those with local bills (i.e., utilities) to open these accounts. Has this changed?

- teknologist 12y agono I don't think this restriction for "Swiss citizens only" really exists. I'm resident in Switzerland as a non-Swiss and can get the same privileges being an EU citizen (I have a permit to reside in CH with my work).
