Swiss Mutual Fund
The Swiss Mutual Fund is an offshore investment company headquartered in the Commonwealth of Dominica. Despite the inclusion of the word Swiss in its name, the Swiss Mutual Fund's board of directors is comprised solely of Dominican citizens, and the company does not appear to have any significant ties to Switzerland.
History
Swiss Mutual Fund originally mentioned on its website that it was created after World War II in 1948 by the Cheviot family of France, with operations based in Berne, Switzerland. After 48 years (1996), the firm moved to the Commonwealth of Dominica due to changes in financial regulations in Europe. However the Swiss Embassy in Kuala Lumpur has stated the following:
"The Swiss Mutual Fund (1948) and or Swiss Cash are not registered companies in Switzerland. Until proof of the contrary, the Embassy doubts that the remarks about these funds and their historic links to Switzerland as outlined on their original website are genuine. The original website is indeed registered in the USA and the contact telephone number is from New Jersey (USA)."
This information was also corroborated by the Swiss Embassy in Singapore.
On December 13 2006, Swiss Mutual Fund (1948) S.A. was strucked off from the Commonwealth of Dominica's Register of International Business Companies.
The current version of the Swiss Mutual Fund website no longer includes any information about the company's history.
At June 2007, the Securities Commission, Malaysia's capital markets regulator, has already taken action against the promoters of Swiss Cash.
At Aug 2007, the website is down, no one can login anymore.
Internet rumors said website down was due to hurricane, and would be back at 25 Aug. But, nothing happen at 25 Aug.
Afterward, few similar websites were up. But, no official announcement from Swiss Mutual Fund proved that whether those website are from Swiss Mutual Fund. Those websites only had front page, and could not be login. This website such us : swisscashguide.com, suntraders.com and so on.
Internet rumors said website down was due to upgrade and maintain, and would be back at 1 Sep 2007. Nothing happen at 1 Sep. And the swisscash Investor so frustated with their lost of their money.
Internet rumors said Swiss Mutual Fund would be back at 15 Sep 07. Nothing happened at 15 Sep.
On Sept 17, the Financial Supervision Commission of the Commonwealth of Dominica released a press release which confirms that Swisscash is not a registered or incorporated company and does not have any established business in the island nation.
The new rumors is Swisscash will be back online again with their new website called Suntraders.com and will be back online when it finished 9 phase and now it still at 5 phase.
Critism
There have been allegations that the Swiss Mutual Fund is a Pyramid Scheme, with victims predominantly in Malaysia.[8] The Central Bank of Malaysia has issued warnings regarding Swiss Mutual Fund's legitimacy, and have advised investors to avoid the company and its subsidiaries. The Monetary Authority of Singapore has placed Swiss Mutual Fund in their Investor Alert List.
