BTW, that's quite a myth. There were never bank accounts where the banks didn't know who the client was. But not everybody at the banks had access to the info what account belonged to which person.
Of course if you as a foreign country could get info about your own citizens having bank accounts is a different question (and that has luckily changed in recent years).
