save your money & peace of mind. Dominican Banks are untrusworthy, ala, Baninter, Bancredito and banco mercantile. All went belly up, and there are over 200 depositors involved in lawsuits against Bancredito, banco Leon and the Banco Central. The Dominican Banks go out of business as if it were ?business as usual?. The primary offender is Baez Figueroa former owner of Baninter, who managed to corrupt the entire Dominican Government. While he has been charged, but walks freely around acting like a hero. His culpability in the failure of Baninter is the biggest assault on the economy this Country has ever tolerated. Former President Hippolito, was up to his fat neck involved in Baninter?s failure, and Hippolito is up to his fat neck with his involvement with Pepe Goico, his former ?security chief?. Goico is already an international criminal and is being sought by Interpol. Goico now hides out in Spain and with Dominican Laws, he probably will never be deported from Spain. Why ?? if a trial ever took place his former boss Hippolito would be chargeable as well, so keep your money in the US, and visit the DR as a tourist. You can open a checking account just to do some shopping, and deposit your US dollars with a check from your US Bank. Porfirio
