швейцарские банки начинают взимать плату за размещение особо крупных депозитов: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-12-1 Swiss Negative Rates Targeting Foreign Banks Seeking Safety The Swiss National Bank (SNBN) said it will charge 0.25 percent on sight deposit account balances in excess of 20 times the minimum reserve requirements, a threshold foreign-owned banks exceed by a larger margin, data from UBS Group AG (UBSG) economists shows. Any financial company wishing to participate in the Swiss interbank clearing system, which allows cashless payments, needs to have a sight deposit account with the SNB. Sight deposits that banks held in the reserve period that ended Oct. 19 amounted to 311.9 billion francs, surpassing the requirement by 21.4 times, SNB data shows. “Negative rates are mostly aimed at the foreign banks that choose to hold their money in Swiss francs because they think it’s safer at the moment,” Dirk Becker, a Frankfurt-based analyst at Kepler Cheuvreux said. “The SNB is trying to discourage that,” he said, adding that foreign banks may pass on the costs to clients who specifically ask for their money to be held in Swiss francs. Uncertainty in the financial markets and the worsening of the crisis in Russia have “substantially increased demand for safe investments,” SNB President Thomas Jordan said at a press conference in Zurich today.
