Swiss bank, Wegelin & Company, admitted to helping some wealthy Americans evade United States taxes by hiding over $1.2 billion in secret accounts. This case marks the first instance where a foreign bank has plead guilty to such violations. The bank will have to pay $74 million in fines and restitution to the United States government.
