One of the main reasons is that Switzerland is a neutral country with a great economy, so your money won't be taken away for wars or by the government.

Swiss Banks are very particular about customer confidentialy and secrecy. They are not obliged to share the details of their customers to anyone unless there is legal proof of any wrong-doing by the customer.

Only then will we be able to demand the money. The Government cannot just demand money as and when they wish.
