Short description: Switzerland is one of the few countries in the world that can count on a GDP per capita above $100,000 per person. The average wealth of Switzerland is 200,000 euros. It is a country of opportunities, which with only 10 million inhabitants has become one of the most important global geopolitical players. However, this was not always the case, because Switzerland was relatively poor for a long time. Has neutrality made it the richest nation in the world today? Or is it the legacy of the Third Reich and financial shenanigans? Let's find out. ⏱ What and when during the film: 0:00 Why is Switzerland so rich? 3:27 Thanks to viewers 4:19 Swiss neutrality 5:50 Fighting over patents 6:32 Geographical location of Switzerland 7:50 Switzerland has long been an ideal country for business development 9:49 Controversies related to Switzerland 11:15 Strategic location of Switzerland 13:41 Is it a tax haven? 15:17 Switzerland the best country to live in according to HDI ???? Extended description: Switzerland has been almost immune to crises, to the point that during the crisis of 2007-2009 it irritated the US administration. Obama named Swiss UBS as one of the banks that helped "tax cheaters" and also helped introduce a bill in the Senate aimed at cracking down on tax havens. Ultimately, the Swiss made some concessions in the context of account privacy, which began cooperation with the FBI. This caused a temporary outflow of capital that coincided with the crisis, but the decrease was smaller than the recent increase. Later, another growth rally began, which is practically unstoppable, but why is the Swiss economy so strong? According to the Global Wealth Report from 2019, the median wealth of the average Swiss was estimated at $227,000. For comparison, in Austria it is $94,000, and in Germany $35,000. The European Union grew out of the European Coal and Steel Community, established on the basis of the Treaty of Paris, signed in 1951. This community consisted of: Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg, as well as West Germany, France and Italy. Switzerland found itself in the center of this formation - remaining a neutral country. Being in such a position, Switzerland was in the middle of the so-called blue banana of abundance. Thanks to the trade exchange of Western Europe, which focused on north-south contacts - the Swiss became the transport hub and logistics heart of this trade route. #poland #switzerland #geopolitics
