“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Swiss company agrees to pay $4.4m fine for helping US tax dodgers

• US thanks Swisspartners for 'extraordinary cooperation'
• Credit Suisse expected to face big fine and criminal charges

The Zurich-based asset manager Swisspartners said on Saturday it would pay a $4.4m (£2.6m) fine to avoid prosecution over its past assistance to US tax dodgers.

The US deputy attorney general, James Cole, thanked the firm for its "extraordinary cooperation".

The agreement is part of a US push to find tax dodgers and punish the banks that help them. Fourteen Swiss banks, including Credit Suisse, the country's second-biggest, are officially under US criminal investigation, while many others are opting to acknowledge past wrongs and accept fines to avoid prosecution.

Credit Suisse is expected soon to be slapped with fines of at least $1bn, as well as possible criminal charges.

A damning Senate report found that Credit Suisse at its peak in 2006 had more than 22,000 US customers with Swiss accounts whose assets stood as high as $12bn – mainly undeclared to US tax authorities.

In February the chief executive, Brady Dougan, apologised to senators for the bank's actions, conceding it had undertaken elaborate efforts to gain new, secret American clients, but blamed the wrongdoing on a small band of rogue employees.

In 2009, Switzerland's largest bank, UBS, was forced to acknowledge it had used Swiss banking secrecy laws to help its US clients avoid paying taxes at home, and had to pay a $780m fine.

Between 2001 and 2011, Swisspartners helped US clients "in opening and maintaining undeclared foreign bank accounts". Such actions lead to an approximate loss to the US taxman of $900,000.

Swisspartners will compensate that amount, as well as $3.5m representing the fees it earned in helping US clients skirt the law.

"The US tax issue is resolved," the Zurich-based asset manager's parent company, the Lichtensteinische Landesbank (LLB Vaduz), said in a statement.

Swisspartners and the Justice Department signed a "non-prosecution agreement" on Friday, Liechtenstein's oldest bank said, stressing that provisions had been made to cover the multimillion-dollar fine and it would not have an impact on the asset manager's earnings.
