It was a time when many Swiss bank account- holders took their money out of accounts at UBS and brought it over in plastic bags to Julius Baer to open new accounts. As a consequence, many private and cantonal banks had profited. Julius Baer’s executive meetings at the time dealt primarily with evaluating the counterparty risk, reflecting on "which bank could go under and which country was in trouble, and just guessing who the next victim would be while trying to avoid being the next." Adding fuel to the fire, Julius Baer, the third largest private bank in Switzerland with over 3000 employees and CHF 153 billion assets under management (AuM), joined the ranks of other Swiss banks as the entire industry faced criticism over the question of banking secrecy’s role in tax evasion.
