Which country has the largest banking accounts?
According to the CIA World Fact Book, Japan leads the pack with a staggering $165,600,000,000. Yes, the figures are from 2005, but it does give an overall picture of the wealth countries may possess. I’m suprised. I would have thought that the United Arab Emirates would top the list.
Notable entry: United States 2005 estimate was a paltry $-829,100,000,000. Ouch.

Canada is 13th YAY!
Totally amazing, everyone in the world saves more than us! The second biggest negative account is nowhere close!
Yet an indication that America’s prosperity is but a sham. Our wealth doesn’t exist; our debt does.
Compare our debt in 2005: $8.837 trillion (30 June 2005 est.)
with our debt in 1998: Debt�external: $862 billion (1995 est.)
10 years in that estimate gap and look at the difference. Mother fu**ing “fiscal conservatives”.
The world debt is: $36.88 trillion (2004 est.) America has nearly 1/5th of THE WORLD debt. That’s a shame, a horrible shame. Why would anyone want “America’s money”? It doesn’t exist.
why would you say UAE is the largest bank account..
every one knows japanese are rich
It’s not “bank accounts.” It’s balance of payment – It includes things such as exports vs imports, foreign aid, services. The reason why Japan and China are #1 and #2 (and probably why all the others are so high) is the same reason the US is so low – they are the holders of US debt.
My Home: 101 Malta: $ -598,000,000
Now we’ve got a population of 398,534…
That’s $1500 per capita. :s
Still the U.S. has $2,800 debt per capita.
