SUVA, Fiji (Fijilive, March 15) - The Switzerland-based Bank for International Settlements has no knowledge of an organization promising US$9 billion to indigenous landowners in Fiji.

Senior Information Officer Lisa Weekes declined to answer questions on the existence of the Office of the International Treasury Control because the bank does not do business with Office of the International Treasury.

The Bank for International Settlements is an international organization of central banks of a similar nature that Office of the International Treasury claims it is. However, unlike Office of the International Treasury, the operations of Bank for International Settlements can be traced and according to its website, Bank for International Settlements is the "world's oldest international financial organization" and exists to "foster international monetary and financial cooperation and serves as a bank for central banks."

Office of the International Treasury chief of cabinet Dr. Keith Scott had claimed his superior, a Dr. Ray C. Dam, was appointed as "the sole arbitrator of the centralized wealth of the world, which was controlled under the Federal Reserve under the Bank of International Settlements."

However, Weekes said they [Bank for International Settlements] had "no dealings whatsoever" with Office of the International Treasury or Scott.

[PIR editor’s note: The United Nations has also denied affiliations with the Office of International Treasury, which claimed that it was registered under a United Nations charter (read the story).]

She also declined mentioning the existence of Consolidated Credit Bank where the supposed "additional US$3 billion" rests.

Scott had revealed before leaving the country that Consolidated Credit Bank had its initial registration in the Dominion of Melchizedek, which is an imaginary nation that exists only on the Internet.

Local Office of the International Treasury and Viti Landowners and Resources Associations legal officer Kitione Vuataki had earlier revealed that he had papers to prove the Consolidated Credit Bank has the US$3 billion supposedly given by Office of the International Treasury.

However, the bank, which has its Internet domain currently expired, is also listed in a fraud watch website.
