Swiss banks work to change the fortunes of the world's richest people by concealing their identities. Due to the country's banking privacy policy, wealthy people from all over the world are eager to deposit money in the country. Banks do not disclose customer information under Swiss law. They do not want to know the source of the money. Even the journalists of the country cannot publish any report with the information of the bank. But how have the assets of various heads of state, intelligence officials, banned businessmen, human rights violators and other individuals been secured, who are they? Now that information has come to the fore. According to a report in the New York Times, the leaked documents of the world's most iconic bank, Credit Suisse, contain information on more than 16,000 customers. According to the leaked documents, the total amount deposited in their accounts is more than 100 billion dollars. A self-proclaimed whistle-blower, provided the documents to the German media outlet Swedes Deutsche Welle. Afterwards, 48 news organizations, including the Organizing Crime and Corruption Reporting Project, an investigative journalists' organization, and the New York Times, were involved in analyzing the documents.
They worked with account holder data from the 1940s to 2010. Data from recent years have not been included in their analysis.
On Sunday (February 20), the newspapers simultaneously published 'Swiss Secrets'. The main message of the reports is that Swiss bank's privacy policy is unethical, and they are protecting illegal money. Account holders include King Abdullah II of Jordan, his two sons and former Egyptian dictator HOSNI Mubarak. Information about Sad KHR, the former head of Jordan's General Intelligence Directorate, Akhtar Abdul Rahman, the former head of Pakistan's ISI, Omar Suleiman of Egypt, Ga lib Al- K AMIS of Yemen and their family members were also leaked to the Swiss secret. In the late 1970s, when the CIA was patronizing the anti-Soviet Mujahideen in Afghanistan, the former head of Pakistan's ISI helped smuggle large sums of money from the United States into Afghanistan. Journalists searching for Swiss secrets have named at least 40 other people who have served as intelligence officers in dozens of countries at various times. Among them are former Venezuelan Army Captain Carlos Louis Aguilera Boreas, former head of Ukraine's Security Service Valery Khorashkovsky, and former Egyptian spy Ashraf Mar wan. In addition, the names of several intelligence officers from Venezuela, Ukraine, Germany, Nigeria, Uzbekistan, Iraq, Jordan and Yemen have been mentioned in Swiss secrets. Former Venezuelan Energy Minister Nerves Valois, Algerian Defense Minister Khaled Nagar, Egyptian politician His ham Ta lat, convicted of killing his girlfriend, and a Zimbabwean businessman banned by the United States and European Union are also named. The leaked documents also contained information on an account owned by the Vatican. From that account, 350 million euros have been spent to buy a property in London, where several people, including a cardinal, are under investigation for corruption. According to the Guardian, only a fraction of Credit Suisse's 1.5 million customers have access to the leaked documents. Many account owners have died, and many accounts have been closed. Many accounts are still open. In a statement, the Whistleblower, who provided the documents, said the Swiss bank's privacy policy was unethical. They play a shameful role in protecting money. They cooperate with tax evaders. Credit Suisse spokeswoman Candice Sun has denied the allegations in a statement issued Friday, stating Similar, baseless allegations concerning creditors have been made more than once. At that time, the issues of law, banking policy and expectations and rules for the financial sector were 'different'.
