Your favourite International (non usa) bank and why?

What is your favourite bank to deal with and why?

Also besides USD, do you hold other currencies as a hedge?

 

[Martin Everson]

Don't have a favorite as I have so many accounts with different banks. In end‍ you just end up disappointed if you put faith any single bank.

I don't⁠ touch the dollar at all as I have no use for it. I am currently⁤ in euros but moving out of it into hard assets at some point.

May i ask what countries you prefer to bank in? (why?)

 

[Martin Everson]

I prefer stable places like Jersey and Switzerland. I prefer them as they are‍ stable.

According to Global Finance magazine those are the 2021 top banks worldwide.

Of those i'd say i would⁤ deal with Swiss ZKB, Singaporean DBS and Canadian RBC and TD.

In particular⁣ ZKB is one of the five banks worldwide that has all AAA ratings, it is⁢ wholly owned by the Canton of Zurich and is it safe as it gets.
