| I live in the US. What account do you recommend for US persons? Home > Swiss bank accounts > FAQ > Before you order > Account Question > US persons If you live in the US we can open you any of our accounts. There are, however, some restrictions to bear in mind. First, internet banking is restricted for many accounts if your legal address is in the USA. Second, you should not invest in any US securities from your Swiss bank account if you want to keep this account private. This applies to all accounts. Third, you cannot invest in most investment funds (mutual funds) Finally, some banks are reluctant to accept phone or written orders from US clients while they are in the US because of the way they interpret US law. The Swiss Postal Account would offer you a simple and cheap solution to park funds in Switzerland and gives you unlimited internet access in English. It does not, however, offer extended investment options, mail retaining nor credit cards. |
