If you believe them, that is; I don't, hence my post here analysing their claims and their offshoots.
Firstly, there is The Global Wealth Fund itself: a truly Global enterprise according to them (and so anonymous and discreet that the whole of the rest of the Globe knows nothing about them)
Then there are the previous creations of GWF....
Have a good look around the Web (as I have), speak to informed people in the offshore banking industry (as I have) and see what you find for these three huge players in Global Finance. A big fat zero.
The Global Wealth Fund's latest Libertarian's Dream with hundreds of millions available at the click of a mouse and no AML, no KYC.....and some truly awful Fiverr YT vids to explain the process (comments turned off).
What an attractive idea, anonymous banking....
Generous deposit/withdraw limits.... $100,000,000 a day, enough to tempt people called "El Chapo" as well as the Average Libertarian in the Street.
and better.
You even get our very own Templar Fund handling your savings...
Yes, Privato seems to have everything covered, even their own ATM network
I wonder what the top BTC ATM operators like Bitcoin DDepot and CoinCloud would say if they knew that they are actually part of a network that Privato built?
It's obviously a problem to get customer feedback if the main point of the service is anonymity, then all you're going to get is anonymous feedback. If you're going to use Privato for money laundering for example, you're hardly likely, after transferring $50m covertly with a single click of a mouse, to visit TrustPilot and leave a review in your real name, now are you? Sort of defeats the object.
But no, Trustpilot have 180 reviews for Privato, 168 of them 5 star and a proportion of those with "real" names....(not as large a proportion as the amount that have only left that one review tho).
There are the usual party poopers of course, the one star "this is a scam" reviews which Privato point out are obvious 'blackmailers'. Obviously.
But, just to get 100/100, now Privato actually have their own review system on their own website, with 692 out of 721 "Excellent" scores.
Read some, they're funny. That's what we like, impartial third party data. /s
Another tricky one, how does the biggest etc. anonymous bank in the world manage its social media?
Can you be anonymous on Facebook? lol...if you want to be anonymous financially, would you use Facebook anyway? Would you post on their page?
Well, Privato have 132 likes, but only manage 4 per post (most posts link back to their "reviews").
How about Twitter?
Maybe some of the Global Elite are more forthcoming there?
58 followers....nope.
One interesting thing is the "likes" they get on their spam tweets. Example:
Every like comes from another GWE construct (with equally moribund accounts). Ain't that something?
And finally, is there anything about where Privato Bank has any physical presence, any actual registered existence?
It used to be (back in the day, a few months ago, when Mastercard were supposed to provide their card, now it's Visa)
They changed the name, but stayed in the same Panama lawyer's data base as
So, I think Privato Bank is like all the other Global Wealth Fund constructs, just smoke and mirrors. Looking forward to a newbie shill onslaught
