Isn't Switzerland also where Nazis transfered (most?) of their gold during and before the end of the WWII. And this is how they got their "privacy friendly" status because they don't reveal who the real owners are. Convenient, isn't it?

That is still ongoing as most corrupt politicians have a swiss bank account to hide their "assets".
