Do you have an IDEA why Switzerland houses some vital and key headquarters in the world? I.e FIFA Headquarters, WORLD BANK HQT's among others. |

Switzerland is neutral, and Geneva has the resources to host such VIP missions ( and Geneva is a nice city besides ), many international organizations are housed in the city.This makes it ideal for international organizations, or organs of those international organizations to be housed in a Swiss city, as all nations can be reasonably assured that the host country is impartial, and has had no part in unethical activities ( such as bugging diplomats' rooms, or the assembly headquarters etc.). Further, they can be assured that diplomatic pouches and other such instruments of secrecy, which are imperative for diplomatic activity, are not tampered with, and the contents have remained safe.................................... 1 Like 1 Share |

No allegiance during world war and high level of Duty of Secrecy in their banking sector. It makes perfect sense to do all your secure business with them. 1 Like |
