Open an account with Swiss bank CIM Banque
Following the collapse of the Cypriot financial system, Swiss banks began offering account opening on favourable terms. Today, we offer our clients the opportunity to quickly open an account with Swiss bank CIM Banque.
With our assistance, citizens of the Russian Federation, as well as legal entities from various jurisdictions, including offshore, can open an account with CIM Banque. Please note that we open accounts without the need for your personal presence at the bank, and the list of jurisdictions in which your company can be registered is not exhaustive and can be individually expanded to include a wide range of offshore jurisdictions.
