Introduction – Cyprus is a has been jurisdiction for bank privacy and protection from banking information sharing. It will share information freely according to a number of OECD Tax Information Exchange Agreements. Additionally, Cyprus is part of the EU. The Brussels Agreement allows the USA to access any and all bank account information from any bank account in the EU which includes Cyprus. The USA can even get the information faster than the authorities in the EU can. Remember if you are in or from a country that is not in a tax treaty, your country can always ask another country in such a treaty to get the information for you.

Cyprus 2010 Economy – Cyprus is following Greece with its bad economy. Cyprus is not doing well. It’s prices are high, tourism is suffering and it is in general bad economic shape. A lot of money from Greece banks is now flowing into Cyprus banks. This is due to the poor economic condition of Greece. The Greek government is not happy with the money flow to put it mildly and there are associated issues regarding taxes on this Greek money moving out of the country. In our opinion we expect to see some sort of a tax crackdown on Cyprus banks in the immediate future. The charge will be led by Greece and the other EU nations will join in as is now the popular trend in the EU.
We would avoid any Cyprus banks and any Cyprus corporation and credit cards. There are more private and secure jurisdictions. Feel free to inquire.
