Farmerette, any reason why you wouldn't consider AUD $? I was looking at this recently on AAM ,http://www.askaboutmoney.com/showthread.php?t=149576 but haven't made the plunge yet. Interested in your rationale tho. I read somewhere recently that the CHF wasn't particularly "bomb-proof". I think I saw this on AAM, but can't now find the thread.
Troy not quite sure what you mean by this?
'If the Euro goes belly up can the Irish goverment go near a Can$ account that is regulated here, funds held here, with DIRT deducted here??'
If the account is in a non-euro deposit and the Euro goes belly-up then surely you still have your CAD $'s ? guaranteed by investec or whoever. The only difference will be in the exchange rate to between it and the replacement currency here, like punt nua or a weaker devalued Euro? But maybe I'm picking you up wrong.
Looked at CAD/EU chart compared to AUD/EU chart on xe.com. Similar trends over last few yrs btw. I'll do a bit more research on Canadian economy, might be interesting.
On the freezing of a/c's that really would be a doomsday scenario alright. I wonder if that can be done legally or would need legislation. In fact, I wonder if it would even be constitutional?

Chris given what you have said, do you think opening a foreign based account ( either € or other) is a good idea?
Hi Chris,
Given the problems encountered opening non resident German bank accounts, what are your views on sterling accounts in NI, given sterling is depreciating against the euro, and their own inflation issues, i's appreciate your view,
regards,
CW
I think going from Euro to Sterling is like jumping from the fryingpan into the fire.
