Let me see if I got that high school economics stuff right. You deposit money in the bank. You earn interest on that money. Meanwhile the bank loans that money out to businesses, or other people needing the money. (They keep about 10% back on reserve.) That way, the bank makes money, and the local economy grows.

Let's see... but when you put that money in a FOREIGN bank account. Hmmmm.

Most people that have Swiss accounts have ulterior motives. It's usually to hide something.
