Do you really wan to open a bank account in a Swiss Bank? If so,I can share with you that the Bank system in Switzerland is even more liberal than the other countries and they have the established "tradition" to gain more and more trusty clients,just due to their unique work and openness. I woul drecommend you to see on-line all the Banks there and you can apply even on-line for opening of such account. I can tell you that according to their practice it's stricktly confidential any information and when you contact then they will give you all the needed information..I think that you don't have to pay taxes in USA for that..Good luck!!

Well, I don't really understand what you want to reach by this action. You also can invest in Swiss Francs in the US.
There are no sensible "only" online accounts. I think it should be possible to open an account by requesting all forms needed and mailing them back signed. The two biggest banks are UBS and Credit-Suisse. The best interest rate on a "normal" account you'd get at the Migrosbank, but it'll be clearly below 1% per year! And the fees easily can be bigger than the interest earned... All huge banks offer complete online services for transactions and international stock exchange business, but the fees are very high, depending on the instituion.
According to international tax laws, you have to pay tax for the fortune and the interest in your home country.

You can open a Swiss account online,but it costs several hundred dollars to open. Not to mention the minimum balance. Your account will use a number instead of your name. And no you don't have to pay taxes in the USA. That is why the wealthy have Swiss accounts, or illegal reasons.

I'm afraid soon the dollar will collapse.
