Background Information From the outside looking in, it is easy to accuse those who are unfamiliar with the Department of Justice’s Swiss Bank Program as living under a rock. But that is presumptuous when you are a tax attorney who is immersed in this work every day. Let’s begin with some background information. The Swiss Bank Program was unveiled on August 29, 2013. It provides a path for Swiss banks to resolve potential criminal liabilities in the United States. In order to participate, Swiss banks had to take the “bull by its horns” and notify the Department of Justice by December 31, 2013 that they had reason to believe that they had committed tax-related criminal crimes in connection with unreported U.S.-related accounts. In other words, they had to “eat crow.” Banks already under criminal investigation for shady banking activities (along with any individuals who work for such banks) were deemed ineligible from participating in the program. In order to be eligible for a non-prosecution agreement, banks must do the following: (1) Make a complete disclosure of their cross-border activities; (2) Provide detailed information on an account-by-account basis for accounts in which U.S. taxpayers have a direct or indirect interest; (3) Cooperate in treaty requests for account information; (4) Provide detailed information as to other banks that transferred funds into secret accounts or that accepted funds when secret accounts were closed; (5) Agree to close accounts of accountholders who fail to come into compliance with U.S.

    Swiss Banks Pressure U.S. Clients - WSJ.com http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702304753... WEEKEND INVESTOR Swiss Banks Pressure U.S. Clients Swiss banks are asking account holders to prove they are in compliance with U.S. tax laws. By LAURA SAUNDERS Dec. 27, 2013 6:40 p.m. ET Swiss banks are pressuring current and former U.S. account holders to disclose undeclared assets to the Internal Revenue Service, experts say. In some cases, the banks are freezing accounts unless clients can prove they have declared the account to the IRS—or that they are trying to enter the agency's limited-amnesty program for U.S. taxpayers with secret accounts, says Bryan Skarlatos, a partner at law firm Kostelanetz & Fink in New York. The firm has handled more than 1,000 offshore account disclosures to the IRS. In addition, many Swiss banks are sending letters to current or former U.S. clients warning that information about their accounts will be soon turned over to the IRS, says Edward Robbins, a tax lawyer at Hochman, Salkin, Rettig, Toscher & Perez in Los Angeles. These banks "can be rewarded for scaring noncompliant taxpayers into the IRS's program," he adds. Taxpayers who don't step forward to the IRS before the agency obtains information about them usually face higher penalties and are at risk for criminal prosecution. Many Swiss banks will be turning over details of accounts in existence as far back as August 2008. "Some people believed that if they closed or moved an account, they wouldn't be found, but that's not the case," says William Sharp of Sharp Partners, a law firm with offices in the U.S.
