The problem with opening bank accounts as non-resident is that those banks will treat you poorly as a customer, like requiring high deposits, adding ridiculous fees just for non-residents (after the fact), or requiring you to appear in person to do something, and you can do nothing about it. For most people it is best to stick with a few different banks at their place of residence. I would only open an account abroad if I had a second residence / citizenship and could apply as a resident.

World Economic Forum risk affects almost all depositors. Blackrock, for example, has an ambition of systematically converting home owners into renters. Other billionaires are working different dispossession strategies to be applied versus the masses. We might ultimately see, for example, large scale Bail-Ins of depositors to cover widespread derivative losses. Any comments?

[@lorenk.775]

😄😄 Just bcoz they may have certain ambitions doesn't mean they can achieve them how they want, and there are limits through laws and otherwise. and what do you mean by derivatives bail-in?

[@whenwasnow6062]

If you're US citizen and manage to get an account as a non resident (congrats), you must tell the tax lords if they all reach 100k (rule has more nuance). So, as Michael says, it's an escape door of sorts.

If you get a bank account in the US (as a non-resident foreigner), aren't you risking getting into the US IRS tax net? Meaning that you would get all the issues that come with that?

No, bank account has nothing to do with your tax residency

[@henry155]

Reporting Requirements: As a foreign account holder, you may be required to file certain forms with the IRS, such as Form 1042-S (Foreign Person's U.S. Source Income Subject to Withholding), which banks use to report interest paid to foreign persons.

You have to report your foreign accounts to your country of residence, so this is not a way to optimize your taxes. The taxes are not tied to a bank account, but your residence (unless you're a non-dom, which is a whole different story)

As a US citizen, doesn't simply opening a foreign account automatically trigger additional IRS reporting requirements in addition to possible additional tax filings on any earnings in that account as well? These would both mean either paying a tax professional to help you get it correct, or creating even more problems for yourself. If you have a legit need for an offshore acct, absolutely. But just for "fun" or cheap "insurance"? Pass. Not cheap or insurance in reality.

[@mlgneo2855]

"The fact that a U.S. citizen is having difficulty opening a bank account doesn't mean it can't be overcome. First, you could plan a vacation to an island country near the U.S. where you can establish an offshore company. Then, you could try opening an account in Switzerland under the name of the offshore company. This way, you would also bypass that thing called the IRS."

For a Canadian solo consultant in private equity who has not setup an offshore company structure yet, and is about to receive a crippling lump sum payment(as far as taxes are concerned) can I move quickly (within a month after being paid) and claim residency somewhere else when it comes to it? Have not set up structure yet, but also curious the time it would take to do so. Some of these consulting commissions are domestic, some international and there's future equity dividends to think of too.
