 Despite the inclusion of the word "Swiss" in its name, the Swiss Mutual Fund's board of directors is composed solely of Dominican citizens, and the company does not appear to have any significant ties to Switzerland.Swiss Mutual Fund originally claimed on its website that it was created after World War II in 1948 by the Cheviot family of France, with operations based in Bern, Switzerland.In 1996, the firm moved to the Commonwealth of Dominica due to changes in financial regulations in Europe.
