London and Switzerland have fostered an environment that facilitates the laundering of money. They have established an infrastructure that shields and promotes these financial wrongdoers.
Indeed, the Formation House (now the London Office) leak exposed that company which registered and operated companies for clients included organized crime groups, state-owned oil companies, and fraudulent banks. The investigations revealed the firm ran a web of companies registered in Hong Kong, Cyprus, the British Virgin Islands and Pakistan helped clients avoid anti-money laundering rules and had created banks in The Gambia in an attempt to create a tax haven. According to The Times, there was no evidence that Formations House did anything illegal but their investigation highlighted worrying vulnerabilities in the UK’s defenses against money laundering.
Can you elaborate on how Switzerland has „created“ such an environment? People tend to think, Switzerland or Swiss citizens would profit from it while completely ignoring that the reasons for foreigners to deposit money here is the security and trustability in Switzerland and that is has been safe and stable for many decades. Yes, the possibility to deposit foreign money here and keeping most information secret was also a reason in the past. But the Swiss voted to abandon the bank secrecy principle and this is no longer a reason to deposit money here. Same rules apply here as in most other western democracies since then. But again, it‘s about security and stability.
So does Canada. Authorities here turn a blind eye as so many of the rich and powerful benefit and it helps to drive industries like real estate and construction. Most of the banks do not follow federal laws when it comes to prevention or reporting. The ‘Vancouver Model’ of money laundering (implemented throughout the country) attracts criminals from all over the world.

After Putin toppled Yeltsin in a soft coup, he went to work and nationalized Russian's biggest cash cow, the energy and mining sectors and put his long term allies and former KGB functionaries into the main seat of those companies who also happen to have expended their Russkiy mir into the European energy market which of course got them well connected to politicians, lawyers, realtors and bankers who started working on their behalf.

As a dual US/Swiss national, it's always entertaining to see the US act as the world's police (watch "Team America: World Police"). Let's make a documentary about the thousands of shell companies registered in Delaware that hide all kinds of assets. Let's also explore Miami's booming real estate market, fueled by stolen or laundered South American money, which seems to go unnoticed. We should delve into the illegal gun trade supported by US weapons manufacturers, which props up Latin American cartels. The list goes on… It's always easy to pick on the little guy, but hard to look yourself in the mirror. DW pushing its left agenda again.
Your argument about the US doesn't cancel the fact that switzerland is a heavily corrupted country. The difference is that the swiss population profits from said corruption,
Those were just lazy excuses for me, not even valid arguments. They make it seem like they are the only banking institutions in this world that face money launderers, therefore we do not know what they are going through. SMH!
@@henlohenlo689 Switzerland has become the proxy for dictators, warlords, absolute monarchs and oligarchs starting WWII. In order to avoid getting invaded by the Nazis they agreed on safekeeping all the Nazi loot and be silent about it. Since the Swiss guard also is the guard who protects the Pope, the Catholic Church became also a silent crime partner when they where forced to cut a deal with Mussolini.
The Swiss are not alone in that international shadow banking Bonzi scheme. There's an article in Politico that Swiss bankers and lawyers already start moving money around for their Russian clients to trusts on behalf of their wives or children or offshore to Cyprus or Dubai bank accounts well before the full scale invasion. Kremlin TV started talking about the envision 6-9 months before to prime the Russian audience. The West was asleep at the wheel and preoccupied with Covid-19 mandates, which seamed to be a coincident then, but today I have my serious doubts about it. This was well planned out between Putin and Xi as was planned out with Erdogan the 2015 opening of the refugee floodgate into Europe despite billions of euros sent to Turkey. The hostile take over of Honk Kong by China and the Myanmar military coup was not a coincident either. But, I shall digress. The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP), founded in 2006, released the Panama Papers in 2019 including the Formation House leaks in London. In 2022, the released The Russian Asset Tracker, The Israeli Team Jorge investigation, Narco Files and Cypress Confidential. All seem to have one purpose: hide money and corrupt democracies in the process. The Formation House (now London Office) stands out since they have legally found loop holes for anybody who needed to hide money in smaller British Commonwealth states or former such as Pakistan, Cyprus, Hong Kong, Gambia and British Virgin Islands. Malta and Monaco was mentioned in this report.
@@Wisteria__Lane None. Switzerland is a well-known tax haven. If you are rich, you will seek a tax haven place to protect and multiply your wealth. It's natural and totally normal human behavior. But for some reason, the DW TV makes it as something bad. Especially when Russians do it. It's a classical double standard and hypocrisy. But DW is a German national broadcaster and Germany is in NATO. Basically, Germany is a client state of Uncle Sam. So Germany will do and behave as Uncle Sam wishes.
lol what money? Too many regulations. Especially after the fall out of 2008. No Swiss bank takes Americans because they are “too risky” only UBS…or that’s what I as told. Which is kinda funny since they are the ones who bailed out credit suisse this last year at the behest of the fed.
I’m half Swiss, half American and I have to file taxes in the US. American citizens and dual citizens Swiss-American can’t hide money in Switzerland. Plus Swiss banks don’t like Americans as clients. The US has a contract with Switzerland where all Swiss banks have to report all bank accounts of American citizens to the IRS.
The EU could do more to stop their own citizens from stashing their money in Switzerland to avoid paying taxes. It’s Switzerland that benefits from this shady movement of money.

Once we can better understand what exactly is the way that the Oligarchs function in Russia, and how their money goes to “fund the war” - we can all be a better judge of the justification for sanctions. People in the world need to know. People in the west understand that wars are funded by tax payers. But how does the money from oligarchs pay for the war? What do they buy? Equipment? Weapons? Salary for soldiers? What?
Bill Browder was an American national until ditched his citizenship. A good way to get out of taxes. He was a player in making money in the Russia when USSR dissolved. UK citizens not subject to taxes on worldwide income and off shore corps and trusts are common tools for tax avoidance plus lite touch regulations. Now to renounce US citizenship you have pay an exit tax if income and asset levels hit. It used to be free to renounce but Obama started charging money.

Before any Russian assets are seized the US and UK assets must be seized first for the illegal Iraq war with over 1million dead Iraqis, give the money to Iraq war victims and refugees, that way the new legal principle will have a solid foundation in Western legal precedent.

So when you say 95% of the people who is nothing to do with the war because they were not the ones starting the war, you have to think twice...
Really? Think of all the people that were helped because of the Red cross. And don't forget all the peace summits that happened in switzerland. some ended wars like for Algeria. don't only see negatives.
you do not have any point, Russia is literally using china, india and other countries to do their businesses like exporting oil and gas to china and china will exporting it to USA and other Europe countries.
All of Russia's especially "ill-gotten gains" including Russin Oligarchs gains seized and the money for Ukraine both to fund their fight and to rebuild once the war is over. Yachts cars, homes, real estate as well seized and sold or auctioned off.
That Russian money will end up in the US military industrial complex and in the secret bank accounts of politicians and lobbyists in the USA, UK, Ukraine etc. Remember the Hunter Biden emails "10% for the big guy". If Russian assets are seized it will be a short term victory for the US and its allies but a major loss for the future as nobody outside of the West will trust the Western banking system. Dedollarization will accelerate.
All I see in this program is that the Swiss 🇨🇭 have followed the law and reported all suspicious cases . But I have seen nothing been done about Russian money been laundered though Dubai . 95% if russian money goes through Dubai
Swiss banks should not be allowed to do business in the West in general. Their business model is almost exclusively based on helping to legalize money from the criminal world(see Credit Suisse for example - most of the business was Russian oligarchs, dictators, drug cartels, etc).

@@stadex4203 No they didn't. When the Soviets where forced to privatize their industries in the early 90s where did all the investment come from? Who was managing all the international business relationships? Putin was the main contact guy in St. Petersburg if you wanted to get into business with Russia. After Putin toppled Yeltsin in a soft coup, he went to work and nationalized Russian's biggest cash cow, the energy and mining sectors and put his long term allies and former KGB functionaries into the main seat of those companies who also happen to have expended their Russkiy mir into the European energy market which of course got them well connected to politicians, lawyers, realtors and bankers who started working on their behalf. Putin was such a good customer and honest play, regardless the Chechen, Georgian, Ukrainian and Syrian Wars and the aggressive speech towards the West in Munich, he got appeased with the Summer and Winter Olympics, the Soccer World Cup and a spot in the Formula 1 circuit.
Bring those honest and well qualified Russians to Europe and give them the opportunity to make a life outside of the dictatorship and that way work against the Russian government.

But why stop at "freeze"? Those assets ($300-B) should be seized & handed over to Ukraine for rebuilding their country.

UK was welcoming all Russian oligarchs since the 90s knowing perfectly well how they earned or rather stole the money from the Russian people. They didn’t care about democracy and human rights then.
Not anymore.
As a dual US/Swiss national, it's always entertaining to see the US act as the world's police (watch "Team America: World Police").
Let's make a documentary about the thousands of shell companies registered in Delaware that hide all kinds of assets. Let's also explore Miami's booming real estate market, fueled by stolen or laundered South American money, which seems to go unnoticed. We should delve into the illegal gun trade supported by US weapons manufacturers, which props up Latin American cartels. The list goes on…
It's always easy to pick on the little guy, but hard to look yourself in the mirror.

This is not true. British overseas territories are. Virgin Islands for example
The Swiss are not alone in that international shadow banking Bonzi scheme. There's an article in Politico that Swiss bankers and lawyers already start moving money around for their Russian clients to trusts on behalf of their wives or children or offshore to Cyprus or Dubai bank accounts well before the full scale invasion. Kremlin TV started talking about the envision 6-9 months before to prime the Russian audience. The West was asleep at the wheel and preoccupied with Covid-19 mandates, which seamed to be a coincident then, but today I have my serious doubts about it. This was well planned out between Putin and Xi as was planned out with Erdogan the 2015 opening of the refugee floodgate into Europe despite billions of euros sent to Turkey. The hostile take over of Honk Kong by China and the Myanmar military coup was not a coincident either. But, I shall digress.
The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP), founded in 2006, released the Panama Papers in 2019 including the Formation House leaks in London. In 2022, the released The Russian Asset Tracker, The Israeli Team Jorge investigation, Narco Files and Cypress Confidential. All seem to have one purpose: hide money and corrupt democracies in the process. The Formation House (now London Office) stands out since they have legally found loop holes for anybody who needed to hide money in smaller British Commonwealth states or former such as Pakistan, Cyprus, Hong Kong, Gambia and British Virgin Islands. Malta and Monaco was mentioned in this report.
Imagine how much American money is in Switzerland.
what's the problem with that?
@@Wisteria__Lane
None. Switzerland is a well-known tax haven. If you are rich, you will seek a tax haven place to protect and multiply your wealth. It's natural and totally normal human behavior.
But for some reason, the DW TV makes it as something bad. Especially when Russians do it. It's a classical double standard and hypocrisy.
But DW is a German national broadcaster and Germany is in NATO. Basically, Germany is a client state of Uncle Sam.
So Germany will do and behave as Uncle Sam wishes.
Hihihi 😂
lol what money? Too many regulations. Especially after the fall out of 2008. No Swiss bank takes Americans because they are “too risky” only UBS…or that’s what I as told. Which is kinda funny since they are the ones who bailed out credit suisse this last year at the behest of the fed.
I’m half Swiss, half American and I have to file taxes in the US. American citizens and dual citizens Swiss-American can’t hide money in Switzerland. Plus Swiss banks don’t like Americans as clients. The US has a contract with Switzerland where all Swiss banks have to report all bank accounts of American citizens to the IRS.
They don't seize the yachts, they arrest them, not permitting them to travel. The seizure only happens once the case is ready for court.

How ridiculous is that? They found a man with 500k Euros in Cash and 44 Million in gold (notably transferred to Dubai to make the point that Switzerland still is the bad guy. At the same time uncountable billions are being transferred through Dubai, Singapore and other places to support Russian oil and gas trades to the big guys (India and China) - which both are “tbtc” (to big to criticize). And btw, London has been the money laundering place and place to life for Russian oligarchs after Switzerland changed their money laundering laws in the 90ies and early 2000’s. Something they obviously forgot to mention in this cheap production.

DW - please do a deep dive on how, exactly, does the Oligarchs and the Oligarch’s assets finance the way?
Once we can better understand what exactly is the way that the Oligarchs function in Russia, and how their money goes to “fund the war” - we can all be a better judge of the justification for sanctions.
People in the world need to know.
People in the west understand that wars are funded by tax payers.
But how does the money from oligarchs pay for the war? What do they buy? Equipment? Weapons? Salary for soldiers? What?
Bill Browder was an American national until ditched his citizenship. A good way to get out of taxes. He was a player in making money in the Russia when USSR dissolved. UK citizens not subject to taxes on worldwide income and off shore corps and trusts are common tools for tax avoidance plus lite touch regulations. Now to renounce US citizenship you have pay an exit tax if income and asset levels hit. It used to be free to renounce but Obama started charging money.

Before any Russian assets are seized the US and UK assets must be seized first for the illegal Iraq war with over 1million dead Iraqis, give the money to Iraq war victims and refugees, that way the new legal principle will have a solid foundation in Western legal precedent.

you do not have any point, Russia is literally using china, india and other countries to do their businesses like exporting oil and gas to china and china will exporting it to USA and other Europe countries.
All of Russia's especially "ill-gotten gains" including Russin Oligarchs gains seized and the money for Ukraine both to fund their fight and to rebuild once the war is over. Yachts cars, homes, real estate as well seized and sold or auctioned off.
You gonna act like Ukraine ain't get money over there too it's an haven for all billionaires 😂 those money isn't frozen
That Russian money will end up in the US military industrial complex and in the secret bank accounts of politicians and lobbyists in the USA, UK, Ukraine etc. Remember the Hunter Biden emails "10% for the big guy". If Russian assets are seized it will be a short term victory for the US and its allies but a major loss for the future as nobody outside of the West will trust the Western banking system. Dedollarization will accelerate.
russia has like over 288 billion in western assets which they will use to compensate themselves,the game goes both ways

The only law that matters in Switzerland is that of profit.
if it was switzerland wouldn't have imposed so many sanctions.. it's even on the unfriendly list of Russia.
if that was the case switzerland wouldn't be the third country applying the most sanctions against Russia..
Did not realise a court had decided that all these business people from Russia were guilty of crimes
There are reasonable reasons behind every person and their assets becoming sanctioned. Why invite and enrich those helping to fight a war agaist you?
anyone defending russia and russians so obviously these days: a russian bot or a traitor.
All I see in this program is that the Swiss 🇨🇭 have followed the law and reported all suspicious cases . But I have seen nothing been done about Russian money been laundered though Dubai . 95% if russian money goes through Dubai
Because they are scared of Dubai due to the dealings in oil, gas and other products!
Another good episode
Good strategies....business is business.. everyone has a right to venture how they want.
Swiss banks should not be allowed to do business in the West in general. Their business model is almost exclusively based on helping to legalize money from the criminal world(see Credit Suisse for example - most of the business was Russian oligarchs, dictators, drug cartels, etc).
erm no. maybe in the past
@ccii-ch6gf definetly.. or it would have all collapsed when banking secrecy ended. but assets keep rising since then.
absurdity. check the financial secrecy index.
@ccii-ch6gf The reports are out and this was still happening up to the point Credit Suisse filed for bankruptcy because the Russian oligarchs pulling money out cascaded to other clients(fears that they won't be able to pull their money out of CS if it goes bankrupt - resulting in more and more clients pulling their money out).

Because Switzerland has a law to protect privacy! For example I had someone spread lies at the Swiss disability insurance about me. I now need to go to court to find out who that was. The Swiss disability insurance, what is a Swiss government department, is not allowed to tell me, who spread these lies about me. The only way to figure out and sue that person, is going to court.
