I believe this was 2018 when they started CRS reporting. More or less the final nail in the coffin.In what year did the banking secrecy stopped in Switzerland and what was the key that some organization used to make that happened?
Let's assume this is true! Right after you wrote this, the "gangsters with badges under the ruse of government regulators" lurking on here have already targeted Maerki Baumann and levied monetary penalties against them.I give you example; maerki baumann they offer numbered accounts starting from 3 mil deposit.

PS. There are NO mutes in prison! EVER!
exactly. Plus bored bank monkeys at work cannot simply google your name and snoop thru your account to see what youre up to.Numbered accounts are perfectly useless. The only “advantage” is that when you call the bank you can avoid telling your name and just mention the account number. They are subject to all the same KYC and reporting requirements as standard accounts, and always raise red flags when used for wire transfers (in/out), as the receiving/sending third party will require full KYC on the numbered account - something that seldomly happens with a standard account.
However, they are a very good marketing gimmick and an excuse for charging additional fees.
Way to ruin the lives of all those accountholders at Maerki Baumann with numbered accounts!I only mentioned it because I don't have account with them
another angle of ruin is due to them openly advertising crypto exposure, a reason Id stay away even if they offered me to open account under with the papers of my schizophrenic alter ego with a 100 bucks min balance.Way to ruin the lives of all those accountholders at Maerki Baumann with numbered accounts!
Everybody in the bank knows who you are, and you can bet the monkeys will be particularly curious to find out more about the guy they scammed by selling a perfectly useless and expensive product.exactly.

Maybe you have better suggestions?true that. gossip runs wild when people have too much time.

I can entertain the tought, that bank will be let go under rather easily in times of distress since its not in any way shape or form politically based (like a community bank where every grandpa has an account), systemically important (like ubs or the exterminated cs) nor do other locals bank there in large numbers (like a hip and woke emi or smth), more of the opposite, its a semi-obscure place for the evil rich who deserve to be fleeced.
depends on the min balance you can deposit (pick a low profile one) or just take ubs.Maybe you have better suggestions?
Maybe it's part of their 2015 DEFERRED PROSECUTION AGREEMENT with the USDOJ!another angle of ruin is due to them openly advertising crypto exposure, a reason Id stay away even if they offered me to open account under with the papers of my schizophrenic alter ego with a 100 bucks min balance.
oh thats even more interesting what you have found hereMaybe it's part of their 2015 DEFERRED PROSECUTION AGREEMENT with the USDOJ!
Sort of like a Honey Pot
It is kind of like the corporate version on steroids of "SUBSTANTIAL ASSISTANCE, 5K1.1 MOTIONS, AND RULE 35 MOTIONS" for individuals."
For the skeptic & gullible members who still have hope in the goodness and fairness of "banksters," here's the source:

Justice Department Announces Maerki Baumann & Co. AG Reaches Resolution Under Swiss Bank Program. Date: Tuesday, November 17, 2015
PS. I bet you anything you want that Maerki Baumann NEVER EVER disclosed this to their accountholders when opening an account and requiring full disclosure from the accountholders regarding KYC, AML, SOF, SOW, etc. What happened to KYB (Know Your Bank)?
These "people" sold out (read snitched on) ALL their clients to save their own skin from THEIR OWN wrongdoing.
Once a traitor, ALWAYS a traitor!
Caveat Emptor!
PSS. This is public information located on the US DOJ's website for the world to see: Justice Department Announces Maerki Baumann & Co. AG Reaches Resolution Under Swiss Bank Program
EDIT: I see that while I was composing this comment, most of you already knew that MB snitched in 2015.
My euphemistic question to all of you who knew but STILL bank with MB or recommend it is:
Why would you trust a convicted, self-admitted pedophile to babysit your infant children?
