This entry level Swiss bank account offers the most frequently requested features : a powerful internet banking access, an international debit card enabling you to withdraw cash at ATMs anywhere in the world, no minimum deposits, a total safety of your funds (the bank's main shareholder is none other than the Swiss Confederation) and of course, Swiss bank secrecy.
Powerful internet banking access (in English, French, German and Italian)
International debit card to withdraw funds at more than 420,000 ATMs worldwide
This account is opened with Swiss Post, a company founded
in 1849. With over 43,000 employees, 3,400 offices and
Sfr.1,600 million in capital and more than 2 millions
accounts, Swiss Post manages most of the Swiss domestic payment
traffic. In Switzerland people pay most of their bills (such as
rent, electricity, phone, etc...) using Swiss Post. These financial
services are so successful that a fully owned subsidiary has been
created to take care exclusively of the financial services,
Postfinance with 1,600 full times employees.
In terms of security, Swiss Post is one of the most secure institution in Switzerland. With over 150 years of existence, it
began offering financial services in 1906. Swiss Post has a balance
sheet total of Sfr.28 billion for 1 billion of customer deposits and
is fully owned by the Swiss Confederation.
Excellent internet banking system in
English, French, German and Italian. The system enables you to view
your account statements online and to transfer money to any bank
account in the world 24 hours a day. It uses 2 passwords and a
scratch list with 128 bits encryption for optimal security. At Carlton Press we use such an account to receive
payment from our clients and to pay our international
suppliers.
You can get an international debit card that enables you
to withdraw cash at ATMs worldwide. The card works at more than
420,000 ATMs all over the world (using the Plus network),
giving you instant access to your funds wherever you are.
The card has no annual maintenance costs. Each withdrawal
costs a flat fee of Sfr.3.- and the daily withdrawal limit is
Sfr.1,000.-. A security deposit of Sfr.2,000.- is necessary to
get this card. This security will be blocked on a special account
for the time you keep the card.
You need to have a Swiss Franc account in order to get this card.
Of course, you can also get an account in another currency at no
extra cost (a favorite with our clients is a US dollar account and a
Swiss franc account). You can then transfer money between accounts
using the internet banking facility.
You have the choice between 5 investment funds in Swiss francs,
each with a different risk profile. These investments are not
available for people in USA and are only available with Swiss
francs accounts. If needed, we can set up one account in a foreign
currency and one account in Swiss francs at no extra cost.
