Yes, all of those questions were asked as a result of the bank's extra strict KYC and AML. That is why its so outrageous that the J5 and the media worked together to shut the bank down for money laundering and tax evasion, when there was likely less of that going on at my︀ bank than at any other offshore bank in the world. We needed to be extra︁ strict to continue offering the services we offered, and the additional services we were planning︂ to offer in the future. Do you think I liked spending millions per year on︃ compliance? It would have been much easier and cheaper for me to just send out︄ money no-questions asked. If customers didn't think having an account at Euro Pacific Bank was︅ worth the extra hassle they could have close their accounts. In fact, many did for︆ that reason. Why do you think not a single one of the bank's 500 UK︇ customers that Simon York claimed used the bank to commit tax evasion or money laundering︈ was ever charged, let alone convicted of either crime? That's because criminals used other banks,︉ that did not have such strict KYC and AML, to commit their crimes.
