Re: Swiss banks looking for US clients again

I sometimes consider a move to Ireland as an adventure, I worried that the banks would not let me open a checking account because of hassles discussed above in dealing with Yanks.

I went into AIB bank on a visit last year and two bank reps said “no problem, we open accounts for Americans all the time.”

So, what hassles? Is Ireland unique? I understand Panama is ok with Americans opening accounts there.

Can anybody chime in?

Thanks.
